It’s time to start preparing for this year’s Onam sadya and decide on the curries you want as part of your feast. There are many traditional, yet easy preparations that can add a heavenly original feel to your feast, and inchi thairu (ginger curd) is such a dish.
This recipe, which was shared on the Youtube page Shaan Geo, can be prepared with easily available ingredients in your kitchen. Make sure that you serve this curry an hour or two after its preparation, so that the ginger flavour and aroma envelops it well enough.
