Black Jamun Raita
"Black jamuns are excellent to eat when one has Diabetes. They have a sharp and tangy flavour. This fruit is great for diabetics because it contains the enzyme "jamboline" which helps to control the blood sugar level. When buying jamuns, buy those which are soft and pulpy and sweet and ripe. This raita can be enjoyed with a pulao{pilaf} or as a dip with fat-free khakras. Enjoy!
Note: I wanted to enter "black jamuns" instead of black grapes but the computer does not seem to recognise that fruit. Please use black jamuns for this if you are diabetic and not black grapes. If you're not diabetic, you may also make this raita using black grapes or pomegranate seeds."

Charishma, I made this yesterday, and it was excellent! Just the right spice and sweetness-I think next time, I may add some fresh chopped pineapple and fresh green chillies. It would be great with a chicken biryani-this is apart of my permanent recipe collection-Thanks!
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
<p>Hi Everybody! Thanks for stopping by in my little niche of the mighty Zaar world. <br />Here is a quick link to the beauty recipes I've posted (highest rated so far):http://www.recipezaar.com/r/chef=6357/253/451/18/ls=h <br /> <br />A few things I've done:- <br /> <br />1. Worked part time as a Telemarketer in Oman in the Crowne Plaza Hotel. <br /> <br />2. Worked as a Certified Professional Tarotist (Tarot Card Reader) and done accurate predicitions for many people from different parts of the world, most memorable of which is the reading I did for my college Law lecturer and it came true. <br /> <br />3. Written nearly 1000 poems several of which have been published in leading newspapers, ezines and magazines both in Oman and India. <br /> <br />4. Worked as a Moderator on www.allpoetry.com - my BEST and FAVOURITE site on the internet. <br /> <br />My other interests include: Numerology, Vaastu Shastra, Feng Shui, Face Reading, Reiki and Astrology! I am really very keen on getting well-versed with metaphysical sciences such as Astrology, I-Ching, Feng Shui, Runes, Enneagram, Kabbalah and many more. <br /> <br />I love researching on the mythology of ancient Goddesses and then condensing my research into poems. <br /> <br />In the mood to gift me something? Here's what I'd love - A Nissan 350Z {my dream car}</p>
