How do you like your raita?

[Vinayaka]

Me? Good quality yoghurt, finely chopped cukes, a few finely chopped red onion, roasted cumin, and a touch of salt. Not sure if mine is one of the 12 given here.

I've never had raita before, and now I am going to have to get the ingredients tomorrow.

Raita as a side to rice and curry is as French fries to burgers.

Greek yogurt, cucumber, garlic, lemon juice, salt, pepper, dill and/or fennel, and mint. (mint is optional, but dill and/or fennel is not.)

Hm. Off the top of my head... yogurt, cucumber, cumin, cilantro, lemon juice.

I don't recall having had it, but it sounds delicious.

I'll have to try the dill bit next summer when it's fresh from garden.

So, today I made some raita using Greek non-fat plain yoghurt that I added some whole milk to, four cherry tomatoes that I chopped up, parsley flakes, and black pepper. Not bad for a start, I presume. It goes well with the brown basmati rice, salad, and flatbread that I am having at the moment.

One of the best things abut Indian food is experimentation, and more importantly, the openness to it.
