Mint raita

Mint raita is a flavourful raita and indeed a refreshing one. Its a simple recipe and very easy to prepare. Mint along with the coriander leaves makes this raita very colorful and tasty. You can serve chapathi or pulao with this. Its just divine...you may not need any other sidedish for the chapathi/pulao. Hope you will try this and love it :)




Ingredients:

 12-15 fresh Mint leaves
4-5 strands of Coriander leaves
1 cup Yogurt
2 Green chillies
Red chilli powder ( if you want it more spicy)
Chat masala
Salt

Grind mint leaves, coriander leaves, green chillies in a blender by adding a little water or yogurt. Make a smooth paste. Do not make it very watery.

Add this paste to the yogurt. Now add salt and mix thoroughly. Sprinkle some chilli powder and chat masala. 

Enjoy the refreshing raita..!!
