I love making little simple side dishes to go along curries - be it a simple tomato, onion and coriander salad, a bowl of mini poppadoms, or this 5-minute raita.It makes a curry feel extra special, and more like something you’d get from your local Indian restaurant.
This raita is lovely cooling side dish that works great as a dip for poppadoms, or as a way to cool the palate when eating a hot curry.
What is raita?
It’s often made with cucumber and/or mint, but can also include onions, spices, tomato, carrot or spring onion - to name but a few variations.
What do we need?
Stir together and serve topped with a few small fresh mint leaves.
