Vegetable Raita

Punjabi food is known to have a lot of heat. Raita, which is lightly seasoned yoghurt, is the perfect accompaniment to help cool the palate and enhance the flavours of a savoury dish.

2 cups plain yoghurt
1 large tomato (seeded and chopped)
¼ English cucumber (seeded and chopped)
¼ cup cilantro (chopped)
½ tsp black pepper (freshly ground)
¼ cup red onion (chopped)
½ tsp Jaswant’s Kitchen Raita Salt

If the yoghurt is watery drain it in a muslin-lined sieve. In a bowl mix all the ingredients and keep covered in the fridge until needed.
