Aloo Raita – Potato In Yoghurt
This is my version of aloo/potato raita. You can do some changes in ingredients to increase its taste. This is what I liked after doing few trials :).

Looks very tasty. It is kind of new thing to me.
I am impressed with this web site, real I am a fan.
My mother used to make aloo raita a lot. One of the quickest raita recipes. Loved your version Bhawana!
I am a huge fan of raitas and make them quite often. Sometimes, I fry the potato and then add to the raita, tastes awesome!
My mum used to make Aloo raita, especially during summer times. Such a quick, easy yet delicious recipe. I should make for my family here 🙂
Raita looks lovely. Definately it’s a altime hit. Perfect for this hot summer.
This dish is making me nostalgic. It was quite common at my moms place. Yours looks tasty.
A must for summers, I love the inclusion of dill leaves, which unfortunately both of us at home dont like but its supposed to be very cooling and nutritious. This is a meal by itself during summers .. I wouldnt mind a big bowl of this! I made a similar aloo raita last week with mint leaves and roasted jeera powder, all wiped clean from the bowl with some fried rice. Great share!
This is my favorite raita and I can finish it with plain parathas too. I make it often in Navratri fasting days.
