    Hyderabadi Bhurani Raita is a great side to spicy dishes like Biryani and curries. It is great to serve as a part of an elaborate thali.

    Bowl with Hyderabadi Bhurani RaitaFor the final day of this month's blogging marathon, I have a simple yet delicious Bhurani raita aka burhani raita or boorani raita. This raita is popular in Hyderabadi cuisine. It is usually served as a side to spicy biryanis to cool things down.

    Recipe is bookmarked from Veg Recipes of India. This Hyderabadi bhurani raita was part of my vegetarian Hyderbadi thali.

    I admire people who make elaborate thalis. One such inspiring blogger is our dear Vaishali, who has a wide variety of thali -- both Indian and International on her blog. Whenever I'm looking for ideas for party food or thalis to make for the blog, the first place I go to is Vaishali's blog.Bhurani Raita

    Hyderabadi Vegetarian Thali:

    My Hyderabadi thali was inspired her Hyderabadi cuisine post. I made a fraction of her elaborate spread which was in itself one of my biggest cooking feasts. I made this cooling bhurani raita to serve with the spicy vegetable biryani I made in the thali.

    Bhurani/ Boorani Raita:

    Raita is an Indian yogurt dip/ dressing. Yogurt is whipped until smooth to make sure there are no lumps. Then it is flavored with spices and other ingredients like veggies or nuts or fruit are added.

    This bhurani raita has finely minced raw garlic that gives it an interesting flavor. Also red chili powder in added for some spicy punch. It is a quick and easy side dish that is sure to please everyone.

    Bowl with yogurt sauce

    I personally love raita but don't make it often because of my husband's aversion to milk based dishes. So I make raita and all when I'm having company or when I'm cooking for myself.
