Raita

This is a yoghurt based dish with raw vegetables. Best used as a side for North Indian dishes and also known by the name of pacchadi in the southern states.

You need:-
* 3 cups yoghurt
* 1 tbsp chat / raita masala
* 1 carrot
* 1 tomato
* some sliced olives
You are free to choose the vegetables, but commonly used are onion, boondi, tomatoes, cucumbers and carrots.

Method:-
Beat the yoghurt and make it fine. Chop the carrots and tomatoes. Mix all ingredients together.

You can also whip the ingredients to make it smooth entirely like a cream based cold soup and then add the olives in the end.
