Morkuzhambu with Redchillies

Morkuzhambu or Buttermilk kuzhambu is the authentic kuzhambu variety of Tamil brahmin families. It is done in different ways in different districts of Tamilnadu. Each type has its own unique taste and flavour. My mother in law follows Kanyakumari style of cooking which has more of Kerala resemblance. She always prefers making this type of Morekuzhambu which is very simple and tasty. It tastes very well not only with rice but also as side dish for dosa, Sevai, Idiyappam,adai and upma varieties.
