Papad Raita

A simple, easy and quick dish which can double as a summer cooler or can be used as a dip. Served it ice cold, almost in frozen state, to end our lunch and it has got huge applause from my family.




Ingredients


  • Masala Papad - 4
  • Curd - 250 gms
  • Ginger Paste - 1 tsp
  • Sugar - 2 tsp
  • Green Chilli - 2, chopped finely
  • Dry roasted Cumin Powder - a fat pinch
  • Salt
  • Lemon juice - 1/2 tsp


Dry roast the masala papad till they are crisp. Break them into medium sized pieces.



Blend the curd with salt, sugar, a pinch of roasted jeera / cumin powder, lemon juice and ginger paste till it is smooth.



Take the curd in a bowl, add the roasted papad pieces and finely chopped green chilli. Mix in a light hand. 



Refrigerate for 20-30 minutes before serving. Garnish with some more green chilli and roasted jeera powder and serve as after lunch or dinner delight.
