Raita is a refreshing, yogurt-based Indian side dish made by whisking curd (yogurt) with chopped vegetables like cucumber, onions, tomatoes, or herbs such as mint and cilantro. It is seasoned with roasted cumin powder, black salt, and chili powder, and is commonly served alongside biryani, paratha, kebabs, or spicy curries to cool the palate. A staple in North Indian cuisine, popular variations include Boondi Raita (with fried gram flour pearls) and Cucumber Raita, though it is now enjoyed across all regions of India.
