Ingredients

Thick sour curd - 1 & 1/2 cups

Water - 1/2 cup

Salt to taste ( around 2 tsp)

Turmeric powder - 1/8 tsp

Method

Take a bowl add the curd, water, salt, hing and turmeric powder whisk well.

Add the chilies into the curd mixture and mix well and leave to soak overnight. Make sure chilies are well immersed in the curd otherwise they will be floating on top.

Next day remove only the chilies from the buttermilk mixture on  to a plate or tray and dry it in hot sun. In the evening put the chilies back into the buttermilk mixture cover and  soak it overnight.
