raita recipes are very common in my house. well i personally do not prefer to have raita recipes for any rice recipes or for paratha. but it is a must recipe for my husband. hence i try to vary with raita recipe each time i prepare any spicy rice recipe. moreover, i even prepare pudina raita with any starters like paneer ghee roast, chilli paneer, mirchi bajji. basically it helps to reduce the heat of these spicy dishes, yet not compromising on the taste.

furthermore, some tips and tricks for a perfect mint raita recipe. firstly, do not use a sour curd or yogurt for this raita recipe. sour curd would spoil the taste when mixed with mint leaves. secondly, whisk your curd before using it with raita recipe. whisked curd would give a smooth texture to pudina raita recipe. lastly, you can also add coriander leaves while blending to make it coriander mint raita recipe.
