Whenever I make this Morekoozh, I go back to the memory of my school days. My mom often makes Morekoozh as evening tiffin when we return from school. The slight sourness of buttermilk combined with the flavour of green chillies and hing gives an awesome feeling. Morekoozh is a pucca traditional tiffin of Tamil Brahmin Cuisine. It needs very less ingredients but tastes awesome. Gives a great break after any festival feasts....
