BOONDI RAITA

Raitas are good accompaniment for pulao.  We also like to eat with roti if we make dry subzi.  We can make varieties of raitas with cucumber, beetroot, lady's finger, banana stem, mix veg etc.  Here I am presenting Boondi raita.  For making boondi raita, we need kaara boondi or plain boondi.

BHINDI RAITA (LADY'S FINGER RAITA)

Lady's finger, okra, bhindi, vendakkai has many medicinal values.  Normally we make Vendakka Sambhar, Vendakka puli, Vendakka Pachadi etc.with this vegetable.

We can make stir fry subzi, stuffed bhindi, bhindi fry etc.  Today, I thought of trying the raita as raita varieties are liked by my children along with pulao, rice etc.

It is said that bhindi soaked in water overnight and the water consumed after removingthe bhindi  in the morning in empty stomach helps in controlling the diabetics.  coriander leaves juice taken in empty stomach also helps in controlling diabetics.    health-benefits-of-bhindi-okra-ladys.html
