Raita with cucumbers and green onions is a refreshing Indian sauce that perfectly complements spicy dishes. Its history is rooted in the traditions of Indian cuisine, where dairy products help to soften the spiciness of main dishes.

Raita is usually served with biryani, curry, or simply as a dip for flatbreads, making the meal more balanced. Due to its simplicity in preparation and minimal ingredients, this sauce quickly becomes a favorite in home kitchens. A great choice for those who appreciate freshness and lightness of flavor!
