Curd Vermicelli | Semiya Curd Bath |
ಮೊಸರು ಶ್ಯಾವಿಗೆ | ಶ್ಯಾವಿಗೆ ಮೊಸರು ಬಾತ್ |
Curd vermicelli or Semiya curd bath is a tasty dish prepared exactly in the same way as curd rice or mosaranna as we call this dish in our Kannada language and here rice is being replaced with semiya or vermicelli.
This is a very easy and quick recipe to prepare. In all the south Indian temples they distribute curd rice or mosaranna as Prasada among devotees.
I always try using vermicelli more and more in different form of dishes and this is one of them. This can also be paired with any spicy dish, and it is very filling.
Actually this curd rice is called as bagalabath in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, Dadhyodhanam in Sanskrit, Thayir sadam in Tamilnadu, Thayir choru in Kerala and of course mosaranna in Karnataka

OR :
