Aloo raita is an Indian condiment served best with all Indian dishes. Especially, Veg Pilaf, Chicken Biryani. Spiced boiled potatoes garnished and flavored with sweet tamarind sauce and green coriander chutney along with some spices.

Aloo raita

This is a popular north Indian yogurt dish served with most Rice, Vegetable, Dal, and chapati dishes. A popular yogurt dish served at Lunchtime and dinner too. Its compliments most north Indian dishes.

Aloo raita recipe

Ready in minutes. Most Indian households keep green coriander chutney and sweet tamarind chutney ready in the fridge at all times. You just need boiled potatoes, green chutney, tamarind chutney, and pudina leaves. I like to add some raita boondi too. But it’s optional.

How to make Aloo Raita more interesting

Just experiment with the garnish.

Garnish it with sev, or some namkeen (like Haldiram all-in-one),  fresh pomegranate seeds, etc. to make it more flavorful. It will also add a little crunch to the raita.

This Aloo raita compliments all your Indian vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes. Like, Chicken Biryani, Veg Pulao/Pilaf. Perfectly fits the Indian Lunch menus.

Goes well with all Indian Dals and Vegetables- Dal Makhani, Langarwali Dal, Arhar Dal-chawal, Rajma Chawal, Matar Paneer, Amritsari Kulcha, Punjabi Chicken Curry, Chana Dal Khichdi, Pilaf Kali Mirch,Pindi Chole.
