Blog Hop Wednesday is a fun initiative by Radhika of Tickling Palates.


 In her words, “This venture is an attempt to broaden our culinary skills, get to know each other and try out new recipes and at the same time be connected with other bloggers meanwhile making ourselves into becoming the best cook …”.

Though I had seen this event earlier, I signed up late last month and I was excited to see the schedule.This week I am paired with Sumedha of Sumee’s Culinary Bites.I chose to make this simple raita to go with Vegetable Raita. I have already posted cucumber raita repcipe but Sumee’s version had a dose of chaat masala that made it look more interesting and I wanted to try it…

I used:
Recipe source : Sumee’s Culinary Bites

Cucumber – 1
Yogurt – 1 1/2 cups
Chaat masala – 1/2 a teaspoon
Coriander leaves – 1 tablespoon ,finely chopped
Chilli powder- 1/2 teaspoon
Salt to taste

Cumin- pepper powder and a sprig of coriander to garnish

  1. Beat the curd well with salt, chilli power, chaat masala.
  2. Wash and peel the cucumber.Grate and squeeze out the water.
  3. Add this to the beaten curd.
  4. Put in coriander leaves
  5. Mix well and transfer to a serving bowl.

Serve garnished with cumin- pepper powder and a sprig of coriander.

The flavor was quite different from the one I usually prepare. We enjoyed it with a simple vegetable pulao…
