COLORFUL VEGETABLE RAITA

Viewer's Submission: received from Ms Rachita Gupta, Finland

Hi again, this is my third recipe on this site. I have received some good feedback for the other ones so I am writing in again with this cool, colorful and easy variety of Raita. It especially goes well with our hot curries and gels well with both rice and chapatis. So try it onDont forget to write how you found it at Rachitagupta@hotmail.com

INGREDIENTS

Dahi/Yogurt plain 3 cups
Milk 2 tsp
Salt & black pepper to taste
Onion 1/2 finely chopped
Tomato 1 finely chopped
Capsicum 1/2 cut in thin strips
Carrot 1 finely chopped
Some maize/bhutta danas (already parboiled)
Mustard Seeds 1/2 tsp
1 tsp oil
Jeera for decorating

METHOD

	In a mixing bowl beat the curd and add a little milk till it is creamy. Add salt and black pepper. (you can add red pepper also if you like it spicy).
	In a pan, add 1 tsp oil and saute the rai/sarson. When it begins to splutter add the onion and carrot. (if you have added maize danas also you can put them now in the pan). Sprinkle a few drops of water on them and cook with covere for 1-2 mins.
	Now add the capsicum strips and then finally the tomatoes. Saute for 1 min. Take care that the tomato does not get soft. Mix gently. Now mix these vegetables into the dahi and mix nicely.
	Season with bhuna jeera and decorate a few slices of tomato/capsicum on top to go with the ingredients inside.
	Keep in fridge and serve cool.

Serves: 4-5 persons.
