I want to make 3 raitas for an Indian meal that my cooking club is doing. I have 2 recipes that I like (one spinach and clove oil, the other banana). I don't want to do cucumber. Any good recipes?

Thanks!

I've got one with zucchini, but I've never tried it. Still, I'll PM it to you, if you like.

Mary,

You could do a chutney instead of more raita:

• 2tbs grated fresh coconut
• 1-3 fresh green chiles, seeded (omit for mild chutney)
• 1 tsp sugar
• 2 tsp grated ginger
• 1/2 cup yogurt
• 2 tbs vegetable oil
• 2 tsp black (or brown) mustard seeds
• 6-8 curry leaves (subs. 2 tsp whole coriander seeds)

Puree the coconut, chiles, sugar, ginger and yogurt.

Heat the oil and saute the mustard seeds and curry leaves until the seeds pop. Mix into the chutney. Chill and serve.

Sure send me the zucchini one, sounds interesting. The chutney sounds amazing. Someone else is doing chutney but I may see what they are doing and bring it along too.

Thanks for your help!

Mary
