Method:

1. Dice the fresh carrot and steam till lightly tender. Should not be too crunchy for this Raita. I like to steam in the microwave on high for 2 minutes. Cool completely.
2. Add the thick yogurt to a bowl and whisk well.
3. Add the chopped green chilli, celery, and spring onion.
4. Add salt to taste and a dash of pepper.
5. Add the cooled carrot and stir through.
6. Lastly, add the garlic powder and adjust seasonings.
7. Serve with any rice dish of your choice or the Tomato Garlic Rice on the Intro page.

Notes:

• Steaming the carrot till slightly tender makes the Raita easier to eat, while not compromising on flavor. Steam the diced carrot instead of boiling in water for best results.
• The yogurt needs to be very thick and creamy and sour as well. I like to mix Sour Indian yogurt with regular yogurt to get the best flavor.
