Our meals are never complete if we do not have raita, pickles or papads as our side dishes. Raita’s get made with whatever is in my fridge -but the most popular is gujarati banana raita (kele ka raita).
Banana raita goes really well with certain spicy dishes as its sweet and soothing. As bananas can discolour, we usually make this raita just before we are going to serve our meal.
• 2 cups of Greek style yogurt (Vegans can use soya yogurt)
• 1 banana chopped into small cubes
• 1 clove of fresh garlic (minced using a garlic press)
• 2 fresh green chilies finely chopped plus one for garnishing
• ½ tsp. salt
• ½ tsp ground black pepper
• 2 heaped tsp English mustard (you can use a quarter teaspoon ground mustard powder instead)
• small bunch of coriander
• 1 tsp flaked chilies or green chilies for garnishing.
