Vegetable Raita


Ingredients:
All vegetables fine chopped:
1 small onion
1 small tomato
1 green chilli
1/4 teaspoon Kashmiri Chilli powder (it is mild & adds an appetizing colour)
1 teaspoon dried pudina leaves (can use chopped fresh pudina leaves too)
Some chopped cilantro
1 big bowl of yogurt beaten smooth
Salt to taste

Method:
Combine all ingredients (not salt) and let it stay. Mix in salt just before serving. (Salt draws water out of the vegetables & makes the raita runny, unappealing to the eye, so add salt just before serving). You can also add any other salad vegetables that you like: cucumber, some grated carrot, fine chopped bell pepper, romaine lettuce, feel free to experiment ;-)


This preparation goes well with pulaos and vegetable rices. I made this as an accompaniment for Bagara Rice
