THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this wonderful, tasty, beautiful to look at and easy to make dish with us, Bergy!<br/>I made this to go with an Indian themed dinner and everyone loved it. :)<br/>I cut back on the yogurt a tad as per your suggestion and it was fabulous that way.<br/>Made and reviewed for THINK PINK October 2010.

This is absolutely beautiful! And about the easiest recipe you can make. I like the subtle hint of the beets that emerges from the creamy texture of the yogurt, so I myself prefer the ratio as written below. However the first time I made this I added a few more beets which might've accounted for a surprise i received the next day. Left overnight in the fridge this turned a wild magenta color, lol! A recipe to treasure, I will make this each year with my garden beet harvest. Thank you Bergy!

This is my favorite raita ever! I can eat this an as accompaniment everyday. It's insanely easy, delicious, healthy and looks beautiful...just like dessert. I used fatfree yogurt for this and left out the dill - it really doesn't need it.
