Raita, a yogurt-based dish often served on the side with Indian curries and bread in India. It's traditionally meant to balance out spiciness in our dishes but now it just seems an integral part of many meals. Raitas can be sweet or savoury depending on what you add—different fruits and vegetables mixed into plain yogurt combined with few spices such as chillies, cumin etc., are popular choices for raitas; the most famous one is boondi raita (made by adding some fried chickpea flour balls), cucumber raita (you guessed it!), onion-tomato variety too! Pineapple rata isn't something that everyone would make at home because although delicious, this particular type costs more than the Boondi Raita or normal Raita.
