ABOUT Moong Sprouts Raita RECIPE

Raita is an integral part of an Indian menu. It is a yogurt based dish containing some chopped veggies, spices and herbs. It is amazingly healthy and yummy that goes especially well with Biryani, pulao, jeera rice, khichdi, etc. There are various types of raita that you can dish out with any of your favourite veggie. Here is my version of a Whole Moong Sprouts Raita with some tempering poured over it.
