I had recently shared recipe for Boondi Raita, and when you talk of Raita, list can never complete till Vegetable raita is talked about. Vegetable raita or mixed vegetable raita is cool, refreshing, however this does not have any steps with regards to cooking. A great accompaniment for the meal, or just eat on its own. Vegetable raita is full of goodness with vegetables and yogurt. I can just eat a bowl on this colourful raita anytime.
Vegetable Raita is nothing but yogurt with salad dressing. Whilst this goes with any meal and in any season, craving for this amplifies when its hot or it hot dishes.

When it comes to adding salt, take care to add salt only before serving else your raita will get soury and salt will draw out the moisture from the vegetables and make this raita watery.
