Coconut Raita was my first try and I was very skeptical to try it honestly. But this Coconut Raita was a game changer and added a kick to the otherwise routine dinner. It so happened that my son had some school activity and he needed coconut shells and that's enough to tell you that I was looking for options to consume the tender coconut. Now I wasn't very keen to make coconut chutney nor wanted to make anything sweet.

And then it stuck me to try adding it to yoghurt and make Coconut Raita. It just came out the way I wanted not too much dominant flavour but still distinct and the curry leaf tempering just added to the taste of Coconut Raita. So Coconut Raita is not just easy to make but can be used as dips too and that adds to the benefits of the humble Coconut Raita.

Coconut Raita is one interesting way to make simple raita more interesting and you can serve this with Capsicum Pulao.
