I wrote and hit delete on several lines trying to best describe this raita! Simple, flavorful, delicious, versatile! Just like its main ingredient, potato, you can eat this raita with anything to add a special touch to your meal. It is one of my preferred accompaniments for Bisi bele bhaat, paratha, thepla, pulav, you name it. Let's get straight to the recipe. Try it to believe how tasty it is! :)
What you need :
Equal amounts of --
Boiled potato - cut into small cubes or mashed into chunks
Finely chopped onion
Finely chopped tomato
Plain yogurt/curds
Finely chopped cilantro/dhaniya patta
Salt to taste
sugar - a pinch (Optional)
Tempering:
Oil
Mustard seeds
Cumin seeds
Whole red chilly or Green chilly slit
Hing
Method:
1. Make tadka with ingredients under "tempering". Fry till the chilly (green or red) is slightly fried- about a minute.
2. Mix the potato, onion, cilantro and tomato with salt and a pinch of sugar if desired. Add desired amount of beaten curd. Add a few spoons of water if your curd is very thick to get raita like consistency.
3. Finally mix in the tadka and serve!! :)
