About Onion Tambuli :
” Tambli / Tambuli “ – is a humble coastal Karnataka specialty dish. Tamblis are not spicy, greasy or heavy. Instead, they are lite, mild, medicinal and soothing. It’s a perfect summer food as it helps in keeping your body cool and aids digestion. It is served cold with hot rice and eaten right at the beginning in a typical Dakshin Kannada meal. Few drink them as coolants too. Basically, Tambli is a thin yoghurt based curry made by grinding a herb/vegetable/greens/fruits/spices along with coconut and chillies and mixed with buttermilk and finally topped with a simple tempering. Few of them are not even cooked. They taste different depending on what it’s made out of. These are some of the easiest rice accompaniment that can be prepared in a jiffy.
