Boondi Raita

Boondi Raita

This raita can be made in different ways like all other raitas. Some of them like it with soft Boondi and others prefer it to be crispy.

To make the Boondi soft add it to hot water for a few minutes and then squeeze out all the water and keep aside. Mix it with the yogurt mixture just a few minutes before you are ready to serve / eat. Else it tends to break.

To make the raita with crispy Boondi in it, you should add the Boondi directly to the yogurt mixture before serving it.
