About Sambaram
Sambaram, also called Morum Vellam or Moru is the Kerala version of spicy buttermilk. It is prepared in 5 minutes of active working time using yogurt, curry leaves, green chilies, water, and fresh ginger. Sambaram is popularly served during Onam Sadhya. It helps digestion after an indulgent festive meal. You can also serve it with everyday summer meals to beat the scorching heat outside. Green chilies – Adjust according to your taste. Curry Leaves – They give an excellent taste and aroma to sambaram. Ginger – It gives a spicy kick. You can make variations of moru by adding boiled and pureed beets to make beetroot sambaram or grated cucumbers to make cucumber sambaram. Add 3 cups of water and mix well.
1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon chopped green chilies 15-20 curry leaves (torn into small pieces) 1-inch piece of ginger (julienned or chopped)
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving for the flavors to get infused. Tip – Strain the sambaram if you don’t like ginger and curry leaves coming into your mouth while sipping it.
