Carrot Raita Recipe

Grated Carrot Raita is very cooling and healthy yogurt dip and when had during summers, it’s very appetizing and refreshing. Vegetable Raita with yogurt and carrot is subtly flavoured and helps balance the spiciness of hot masala dishes. Serve yogurt carrot dip with any Indian food to cut down the heat.
