Most Indian restaurants serve lassi and it is usually sweet or flavored with mango.

That is not the way that I like it.

I enjoy my lassi salty and spicy.

Also, instead of using yogurt I like to use buttermilk – even low fat has a nice mouth feel and the tangyness of it makes for a lovely flavor.

It is so simple.

Butter milk

Heat up a scant tsp. of oil in a pan and add some mustard seeds, a couple of split green chilies, curry leaves and cilantro.

When the seeds have popped, add to the butter milk and add salt to taste.  You might need to put some lemon/lime juice.

This drink is a great way to cool down in the heat and as per ayurveda, buttermilk also cools the body from the inside.

I really hope that you try this very simple and healthful drink.

Enjoy.

Until I drink again!
