Raita is a yogurt based condiment that is served with rice or rotis. There are tons of variations using different vegetables. When my friend Rachel sent me anaheim peppers, the first thing that came to my mind was to make this raita that we normally make with okra. I do not get fresh okra here and this served as a nice alternative.
Cumin added a nice touch and we had the raita with brinjal rice. Off to the recipe.
