Whenever I want to have something different and exotic for lunch, I think about Semiya bagala bath | Thayir semiya | Curd semiya, as it is a tasty one-pot meal that can be prepared with minimal effort.
I generally follow my mom’s recipe for Semiya bagala bath | Thayir semiya | Curd semiya. My sis and I are big fans of this dish, and Hubby joined the club after marriage. This is prepared similar to Curd Rice. Nuts and fruitcakes it extra special. Perfect for small gatherings/buffets or parties.
Instead of adding Curd alone, Amma adds milk and curd approximately half the qty of milk and keeps it refrigerated. After 2- 3 hours, it tastes amazing. Make-ahead delicacy. I am sure this would be a table winner dish!

looks yummy vidya 🙂 I tried a similar kind of semiya but with milk and nuts like almonds and pistachios. Do check out the recipe. I named it Shahi Semiya. Recipe Link here: http://clicksnbites.com/familiar-with-shahi-paneer-yes-what-about-shahi-semiyavermicelli-then/
We also add a teaspoon of good honey and dates. In Chennai, you can get this in Udupi Hotel RAJ Bhavan in Nungambakkam High Road and Valluvar Kottam Road Junction opposite Sangeetha. They are serving this dish now for nearly 35 Years.
Thanks for the suggestion. I will try it soon
