Why This Recipe Works

Raita is the essential cooling counterpoint to spiced Indian dishes. This version uses chilled cucumber and mint for a refreshing finish, with a pinch of chat masala for its signature tangy, sulfurous kick.


Instructions

1

Stir the yogurt, cucumber, mint, and chaat masala together in a serving bowl until the spices are evenly distributed and the mixture is creamy.

2

Fold in the avocado if using a richer, creamier texture is desired.

πŸ’‘ Keep the ingredients chilled until the very last moment to maintain the refreshing temperature contrast.

3

Serve immediately while cold, or store in the refrigerator until ready to serve alongside hot curries or rice dishes.
