Raitha

It must seem funny at first glance to find a recipe for "raitha". This common accompaniment to a rice or pulav  is a simple mixture of tomatoes, cucumbers or onions with curd. I had recently been to India  visiting  parents and in-laws and a learnt a new take on this age old recipe from my mom-in-law.

Tomatoes - 2 chopped

Bell Pepper - 2 chopped fine ( any kind will do)

Curd - 3 cups

Powders:

Salt

Aam chur - 2tsp

Garam masala - 2tsp

How to:

1.Mix tomatoes , peppers , powders with 2 Tbl of water.

2. Microwave for about 4 min. 

3.Allow to cool.

4. Mix in the curds.

5.Serve with any rice or pulav 

PS: The aam chur addition was my contribution but it definitely adds a dimension to the recipe.
