1 tsp - Sugar
1/2 tsp - Dry mint leaves
1 tbsp - Coriander leaves
1/2 tsp - Roasted jeera powder

A pinch of - Black pepper powder
A pinch of - Red chili powder
A pinch of - Black rock salt powder
Salt to taste
Method
1 ) Beat yogurt and sugar well. Then add boondi, mint and coriander leaves, mix well with yogurt. Sprinkle jeera powder, garam masala, black pepper, red chili, black salt and mix in. Taste to check if you need additional salt. Add little salt as to taste if needed.
Serve chilled as a side dish.Note - 1 ) You can soak boondi in warm water for 2 minutes and squeeze out the water and then use to make raita. This way you can squeeze excess oil out.
2 ) Serve raita chilled after 2 hours, if you like boondi very soft.

This looks so good! I'm going to make it for my mum for mother's day tomorrow :) hopefully, she'll like it!
Thank you for making Indian cooking look so easy (though i've learnt that its not so through experience!)...
I would definitely not suggest to add garam masala in this raita. Plus, try roasting jeera on a pan till it becomes dark brown. Then crush this (not very fine though) and add this fresh powder to the raita. This freshly made crisp jeera will give it an awesome taste.
Anonymous : Thanks for the suggestion :) Roasted jeera powder is already there in the recipe.Haven't you noticed it ? Also garam masala is just a pinch and if you don't like it,you can omit it. I always add roasted jeera powder to raita's and it does add flavor and taste.
