Coconut Raita

Coconut Raita is one of my favorite raitas. It goes very well with sambar rice and also with dry vegetable curries. This is a South Indian raita recipe. This quick, easy yogurt-based salad is filling, and is best in small doses, as the coconut can be quite rich.

Servings: 2-4
Cooking Time:5 minutes

Ingredients

1 cup coconut, freshly grated
2 cups plain yogurt
Salt to taste

For Seasoning

1 green chilli, finely cut
3-4 curry leaves
1/2 tsp mustard seeds (rai)
1/2 tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
1 tsp vegetable oil

Preparation

In a medium bowl, mix the coconut, plain yogurt, and salt.
Heat oil in a small pan. Add the mustard and cumin seeds. As the seeds start to pop, add the green chillies and fry for a second. Add the curry leaves and fry for a second.
Pour the seasoning over the yogurt. Stir it in after it cools a bit.
Serve the coconut raita with rice and any dry vegetable curry or sambar.
