One of my inventions. This is a very quick raita to put together. This recipe can be served with northern Indian or Middle Eastern foods. A good way to add protein to a vegetarian meal. Ingredients:
2 cups plain yogurt |
1/2 cup water |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
1 teaspoon dried mint |
salt, as needed |
15 ounces canned chick-peas, rinsed and drained |
Directions:
1. In a serving bowl put the yogurt.
2. Add the water and stir to blend. If you like an extra thick raita, either reduce the water or leave it out all together.
3. Stir in the garlic powder, mint and salt.
4. Add the chickpeas and mix until everything is well blended.
5. Cover and chill in the fridge to allow time for the flavors to marry before serving.
6. Optional: If you have the time, lightly fry the rinsed and drained chickpeas for about 5 minutes in 1 Table. of oil, before letting them cool and adding them to the recipe.
