                                   The beauty of our platter resides in the side dishes. Raita is one such dish which provides an intresting company to our main courses. The white and plain raita may not burst spice of flavour in our mouth but it is certainly refreshing.It  lightens our tastebud and usually comes as a relief from heavy spices.I like raita as every time i serve it to my guest they demands a second help of it. I often serve  raita with my biryanis and pulaos. Its utmost lovable quality is that it can be made in no time. When ever i get a hand on curd I end up making raita as it easy to make and could be prepared with everyday household ingredients.
                          I often add raita to my everyday cooking as almost everyone around is a great fan of it. It tastes great with regular  rice and dal. It is also good for those looking for healtheir options of food. This is because its completly oil free and nutritious.I keep wotking on my raitas to make it even more favorite  choice  of  my foodie friends and family.
                            I have shared a few simple recipes in my blog. It may be usefull especially when you are searching for a quick side dish. I have tried to give variations by adding dry fruits, veggis, fruits and spices in mouth watering combinations.
