New Delhi:

When it comes to desi food, be it ghee, coconut oil of curd rice no critic is spared be it a Michelin star chef or a regular tweet. There's nothing more soothing that curd rice called, 'dahi-chawal' in North and Thayir Sadam in South in the summers and any disregard to this will never be entertained. 

After Richa Chadha shut down a Harvard University Professor, over calling coconut oil 'Pure Poison', the Indian curd rice lovers on Twitter schooled a Twitter user from London who uploaded a photo of a bowl of curd rice and shared an unpopular opinion about how she didn’t like it much.

Many informed her how healthy curd rice is at it aids digestion, cools the body, acts as a stress reliever, helps with weight loss and increases one’s body immunity while others asked her to have it in the right way. Some even asked her to get 'cultured'.

 

Curd rice or dahi-chawal is a dish originating from India. It’s also known as thayir saadam (Tamil Nadu) and daddojanam (Telangana and Andhra Pradesh). While food choices differ from one place to another, but curd rice is comfort food for people all over India and even in the Middle East for its cooling properties. South Indians add a tempering of mustard seeds, curry leaves and spices to it, dahi chawal is consumed solo with a pinch of salt and a dash of lime in the north.
