[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yogurt-rice with an assortment of pickles. https://www.padmalakshmi.com/yogurt-rice-recipe [/quote] That is no dish, salad, intro, or side dish.[/quote] That’s what we often eat in India as an entire meal with condiments. Not everyone needs to follow your rules. [/quote] I would respectfully say that I have never seen just yogurt rice, even the fancy one in your recipe, served as a full meal [b]unless people are doing the equivalent of a lazy dinner.[/b] It is preceded by a vegetable/rice dish, at least, for a full meal. Doesn’t mean it’s not awesome! [/quote] Did you miss the thread title?[/quote] I was just responding to the immediate PP. I don’t want people thinking that yogurt rice is what regular people eat as a full meal in India. It’s a perfect lazy dinner, though! [/quote] I am that immediate PP and thank you for explaining this to a person born and raised in Chennai. People in my very large community and all over the state do eat it occasionally as a meal accompanied by pickles, papads, assorted vathals, vadams, chips, etc. [/quote] My family is from 2 southern states and my husband’s are from one as well. I was also born and spent much of my childhood in India. In my experience, it’s the perfect lazy dinner. If things got hectic or we were coming back from a trip, curd rice was the meal, but people wouldn’t call that a full meal. For a non-lazy dinner, there was always some vegetable or a curry with rice, but curd rice was always how we ended a meal. It’s not too nutritious on its own. I learned something new today, and sorry for generalizing. You’re right that I don’t know Chennai. [/quote]
