How to make boondi raita
add yogurt or chilled curd to a mixing bowl.
Add salt, cumin powder, red chili powder, pepper, chaat masala and coriander leaves.
You can also skip chaat masala and add few drops of lemon juice if the curd is not sour.
Whisk everything well until smooth.
Add more salt and cumin powder if needed.
If using store bought yogurt, you may need to add 2 to 3 tbsps water.
Add boondi just before serving.
Gently mix.
You can also add boondi to a bowl of clean water.
Remove it after a minute.
Squeeze gently to drain excess water.
Add to the bowl.
This removes the flavor of oil.
Garnish boondi raita with little spice powders, more boondi and coriander leaves.
Serve with your meal or enjoy as a snack.
