Paazhaya saadam or left over fermented rice
is a very common recipe in summer. Now its winter time in many places but it is super hot in my part of the world. This post is a simple paazhaya saadam with maa-ingi
(Mango ginger pickle) which is just a slight alternative from the regular way.
During summers, fermented rice is mixed
with yogurt and consumed with small onions. This completely cools down the body
from heat. In Singapore, some days are still warm (I am sure in few more places
too!!) and we can still consume this healthy recipe. Instead of onion’s, I
choose maa-inji because even this combination is very good.
During winter season, mainly for its health
benefits I would still prefer to eat the fermented rice rather than storing
them in refrigerator and reheating them in microwave. As long we do not catch a
cough or cold this rice is still fine to consume.
Coming to the benefits of fermented rice, it
is rich in Vitamin B12 due to its fermentation process. It has naturally formed
bacteria which aids in digestion and a body coolant. The list goes on!!
