Turmeric Tambli(Turmeric in Coconut and yougurt sauce)/ಅರಿಶಿನ ತ೦ಬ್ಳಿ

This is one of my favourite, healthy,  dish which goes super duper with hot steamed rice.You can even have it as a drink.  I learnt this recipe from my aunt Sowmya Bhat. In this recipe, we are using fresh Turmeric tuber. As we all know, Turmeric has its own medicinal values. I recently came to know by a eldery person that we have to have this dish at the begging of the meal. As I said, it has its own medicinal value and is more effective when our stomach is empty. Give it a try this super easy dish.
