Mix Veg Raita

🔥 Prep

• Peel and finely dice the 0.5 pc onion into small pieces.
• Wash and finely dice the 0.5 pc tomato, removing seeds if desired.
• Wash, peel (if desired), and finely dice the 0.5 pc cucumber.
• Measure out 300 g yogurt into a mixing bowl.
• Measure out 0.5 tsp chaat masala and 0.5 tsp salt and set aside.

🔥 Cook

• 1. Add the 300 g yogurt to a bowl and whisk vigorously until smooth, about 30 seconds at room temperature.
• 2. Add the finely diced onion, tomato, and cucumber to the yogurt and gently fold them in using a spatula for 1 minute until evenly distributed.
• 3. Sprinkle the 0.5 tsp chaat masala and 0.5 tsp salt over the mixture and stir for 20 seconds to incorporate the seasoning.
• 4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the raita for 10 minutes at cold temperature (4 °C) to allow flavors to meld.
• 5. Give the raita a quick stir before serving to restore its creamy consistency.

🔥 Serve

• Transfer the chilled mix veg raita to a serving bowl and garnish with a light sprinkle of extra chaat masala if desired.
• Serve alongside spicy North Indian dishes such as paneer tikka, aloo paratha, or biryani.
• Pair with warm naan, roti, or steamed basmati rice for a refreshing contrast.
