Sharing with you all one more curd based side dish, an appetizer with lot of medicinal properties ie.. shunti tambuli/ginger tambuli, which is very good for digestion and also a healthy, tasty , simple side dish. Actually we eat this tambuli mixed with steaming rice and ghee at the beginning of the meal, then we continue with other dishes. This is one of my most favorite side dish and curd based dish.
Tastes good with aloo paratha as well, but you just need to add more curd
