AuthorNote: Raita is a yogurt-based sauce that is served as a condiment
with Indian meals. It has a cooling effect on the palate and is the
perfect balance to the spiciness of curries and other favorite Indian
dishes. Add a small dollop to your feast, which may include Mulligatawny
(page 3), Cauliflower Chickpea Subji (page 19), Tempeh Vindaloo (page 28),
and Rice Pilau (page 9).
