Yogurt raita is a creamy, refreshing side dish commonly found in Indian cuisine. Made with plain yogurt as its base, it's typically mixed with grated or diced vegetables like cucumber, carrot, or onion, and seasoned with spices such as cumin, coriander, or mint. Some variations may also include tomatoes, fresh herbs, or a dash of chili. Raita is naturally low in calories and rich in probiotics, which support digestive health. The addition of fresh vegetables adds fiber, vitamins, and minerals, making it a nutritious complement to spicy dishes. However, those watching their fat intake should opt for low-fat or non-fat yogurt options to reduce calorie content. Often paired with biryanis, curries, or flatbreads, yogurt raita not only enhances the meal's flavor but also provides a cooling contrast to the heat of Indian spices. Its simplicity and healthful ingredients make it a staple in balanced diets.
