Instructions
 

  • Wash and finely chop the red cabbage. This will help it incorporate well into the raita.
  • In a small pan, heat the oil. Once hot, remove from the heat. This prevents the spices from burning.
  • Add the green chilies and curry leaves to the warm oil. The residual heat will release their aroma.
  • In a bowl, combine the chopped red cabbage, yogurt, and the tempered spices. Gently mix until everything is evenly distributed.
  • Season with black salt to taste. The black salt adds a distinct savory flavor that complements the other ingredients.
