Thayir Sevai | தயிர் சேவை | Curd Sevai

Thayir Sevai is a famous South-Indian tiffin recipe. Rice noodles flavored with curd and seasoned with spices. I used instant sevai, to follow the traditional(home made) sevai method check here.  

This Thayir sevai is totally soothing, I served it along with Vegetable Sevai which is the spicier version. Check other sevai versions which I have already posted -> Veg Sevai & Tomato Sevai. 

Ingredients :-
-------------------

Instant Sevai / Idiyappam	10o grams
Curd / Yogurt	1 cup
Milk	½ cup
Green Chillies(finely chopped)	2
Ginger (grated)	½" piece
Asafoetida	pinch
Curry leaves	1 sprig
Mustard	¼ tsp
Urad dal	½ tsp
Channa dal	½ tsp
Oil	1 tsp
Salt	to taste

Method :-
------------- 
1). Heat water in a deep pan and switch off when it boils. Then add the sevai and keep it covered for 3-5 minutes till rice sevai is tender. Drain the water and set it aside. (or) Prepare rice sevai as per the instructions on the pack.    

2). Heat oil in a pan and add mustard seeds. When they splutter, add urad dal, channa dal, asafoetida, grated ginger, chopped green chillies and curry leaves. Saute till the dal turns brown. Keep it aside. 

3). Mix the cooked sevai and the curd along with salt. Little by little add milk and combine everything together. Finally add the seasoning and mix together.

Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve hot with pickle !

Notes :-
-----------
# You can also garnish with grated Carrots, Pomegranates, Grapes and nuts.
# Use full cream milk, it gives a creamy texture. If you are not using milk, Sevai becomes very thick.
