If you ask what I like in hot summer for a meal, the first thing that comes to my mind is any of the cold tamblis with rice. They are also easy to cook (at least according to me) because you need not slog in front of stove. Yes, I get irritated to stand in front of hot stove and cook on these days. Today I am posting Menthe Tambuli, I like the light bitter taste of methi, the taste and smell of fried coconut in curd.. and to top it all it is super healthy and easy to cook.

You Need:

• Methi – 2 tsp
• Jeera – 1 tsp
• Coconut – 2 tbsp
• Red chilli – 1 cut into pieces
• Green chilli – 1
• Hing – 1/4 tsp
• Curd – 1 1/2 cup
• Salt to taste

Method:

• Heat a kadai
• Dry roast Methi till methi slightly starts changing colour and you get the nice aroma
• Remove and keep aside
• Add the Jeera, green chilli and Red chillie
