Bits of diced cool cucumber, minced basil, and toasted walnuts swirled into creamy whole milk yogurt–this cucumber basil raita dip is a deliciously healthful appetizer. Scoop a spoonful onto your pita chip and you’ll know exactly what I mean.
What is raita?
Raita, RYE-ta, is a traditional palate-cooling yogurt “salad” to go with spicy Indian curry.
I used to make this light refreshing raita only for Indian curry theme dinners. And then I discovered how awesome it is with pita chips and veggies. Wow–raita dip!
