Ingredients
- 1 cup boondi
- 250. ml. curd
- ½ tsp. black salt
- 1 tsp. cumin powder roasted and ground
- ½ tsp. sugar optional
- 1 tbsp. cilantro- mint leaves finely chopped
- ½ tsp. red chilli powder optional
- 1 tsp. chaat masala
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Whisk the curd till smooth say about a couple of minutes.
- Add black salt, cumin powder, sugar, chilli powder, chaat masala and salt together. Taste and adjust seasoning. You may add a little water/milk to thin down the curd but don’t make it too thin.
- Meanwhile prepare boondi by soaking in warm water for 5 minutes. Squeeze out the water and use the boondi. Add it to the spiced yoghurt.
- Keep it in the fridge for chilling.
- Just before serving, garnish with coriander leaves and mint leaves and serve immediately.
- Your tasty boondi raita is ready to serve.
Notes
- I buy store-bought boondi. Buy the one which is not spiced.
- Always use fresh and thick curd for raita. Sour curd will just not work well.
- Instead of water for thinning the curd, you may use milk. That enhances the taste of raita.
