Makhana Raita is a perfect add on to you meal. It not just adds taste but protein too. Yes!! Makhana or Fox nuts are rich in protein and adding them in Raita or Yoghurt add to the protein content existing in the diary product. So when looking for a protein rich diet don't miss Makhanas and offcourse not to miss Makhana Raita.
The taste of Makhana is pretty bland but when flavoured with salt or any other seasoning it goes to the next level. Most people in India eat Makhana during fasting but otherwise our diet is mostly this super food deprived. These can be easily sourced and the recipe offcourse is super easy to try out.
