Instructions

  1. Chop onions and green chili peppers finely. Add this along with cumin powder and salt and mix well to combine.
  2. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve chilled!

Notes

  • Typically, raita recipes include cucumbers, but I've left that out here because I'm very allergic to cucumbers! Please feel free to include 1 cucumber in this recipe. 
  • Greek yogurt is typically too thick for this recipe, so if using that, dilute with ⅓ cup of water per 3 cups of Greek yogurt to get to the right consistency 
  • For other variations featuring mint, boondi, and other unique toppings, check the main post.
