Carrot Raita



A very tasty and healthy accompaniment for any mixed rice or pulao or Briyani.It tastes good even with vatha khuzhambu.Generally it is done by grinding the carrot along with coconut and chilli but I prefer grated carrots as they give a nice texture to the raita.you can even add vadai to this raita and transform it into curd vadai or thayir vadai topped with boondi .
