Capsicum Raita | How to make Capsicum Raita | Kudaimilagai Thayir Pachadi recipe with step by step pictures and instructions. Capsicum raita is capsicum mixed with spiced yogurt mixture. Raita is simple side dish made with curd. We can add any vegetables of our choice, mostly commonly used are cucumber, onions, tomatoes, carrots etc. It is perfect coolant for summer. It goes well with Biryani, pulao or any parathas.

I am not a big fan of Raita and don't eat with biryani or parathas. I really like to eat salads, greens or Raita alone. Taste of the recipe depends on the curd. So use good quality curd which is not sour for the recipe. Adjust the spices according to you preference. You can add chopped green chillies and sprinkle chaat masala on the top.
