Cabbage and Apple Raita (recipes)


Serves 8-10



This versatile and substantial raita has accompanied many a company meal at my home. The texture and taste are unique yet go well with almost any food.





2 cups plain yogurt 500 mL

3 tbsp granulated sugar 45 mL

1 tsp salt or to taste 5 mL

3⁄4 tsp freshly ground black pepper 4 mL

1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice 15 mL

2 cups diced apples 500 mL

6 cups very finely shredded cabbage 1.5 L

1⁄3 cup roasted peanuts, chopped 75 mL

1 tbsp vegetable oil 15 mL

11⁄2 tsp mustard seeds 7 mL





1. Stir yogurt in a bowl until smooth and creamy. Stir

in sugar, salt and pepper. Cover and chill well before serving. (Can be refrigerated for up to 8 hours.)

2. In a separate bowl, toss together lemon juice and apples. Mix in cabbage. Cover and refrigerate until chilled or for up to 3 hours.

3. Just before serving, pour yogurt into cabbage mixture. Add peanuts and toss to mix well.

4. In a small saucepan, heat oil over high heat until almost smoking. Add mustard seeds and cover immediately. When seeds stop popping within a few seconds, pour over top of cabbage. Toss and serve immediately.
