This has become my "go to" raita when I want to make Indian at home - I nuke some frozen malai kofta, spoon out some mango chutney, whip up this raita and throw a paratha in the skillet... And I have a delicious Indian dinner in about 10 minutes - less time than it would take me to go get take out. Can't beat that!
