Ingredients
Tempering
- 1 tsp Oil
- 2-3 Chillies chopped, green
- 5 Curry Leaves
- Salt black, to taste
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.

- Season with black salt to taste. The black salt adds a distinct savory flavor that complements the other ingredients.
- Serve the raita immediately or chill for later. It pairs well with a variety of Indian dishes.
