This is absolutely delicious! The pomegranate adds such a fresh twist to the raita.
I think you should add more pomegranates. Needs more flavor!
Yogurt and pomergranate? Uh, never heard of that. Isn’t that kinda weird??
I dunno, sounds kinda gross to me. Why put fruit in yogurt? Just eat them separately, haha.
Actually, it’s a really refreshing combo! The tangy yogurt balances the sweetness of the pomegranate. You should give it a try!
Easy recipe! But I didn’t have black salt, so I just used regular salt and it was fine. Still good!
Love it! I made extra and used it as a dip for veggies. So tasty!
Yogurt and pomegranate? Not a fan. Who even eats this stuff?
Sounds like a weird combination. Can’t believe people eat yogurt with fruit.
I think it’s actually really tasty! Yogurt and fruit is a classic combo in many cultures. Try it before you knock it!
Yogurt with fruit is great! But I dunno about pomegranate, it looks funny. Might be picky…
I tried this recipe, but the cumin was way too strong for my taste. Maybe less next time?
I added some chopped cucumber because I thought it needed more texture, and it turned out great! Really enjoyed this!
Just made this, but I forgot the cilantro. Still turned out great, though!
I made this for a party and everyone loved it! I served it with biryani. Yum!
Are you sure everyone loved it? Raita seems kinda plain with just yogurt and seeds… I don’t know.
That sounds delicious! Biryani and raita are a perfect match. I’ll have to try it next time.
This raita is super refreshing! I love the burst of pomegranate seeds with the yogurt. Definitely a keeper!
Raita supposed to be spicy? This was just too plain for me.
Super easy and refreshing! Perfect for summer parties. Thanks for sharing!
Not really my thing. The pomegranate seeds just don’t mix well with the yogurt for me. Sorry!
I totally get that! The flavors can be a bit unusual for some. Maybe try it without the seeds? Still delicious!
Yummy 😋
This looks so good, can’t wait to try it! 😍
Isn’t raita just yogurt with stuff? What’s so special about it? 🤔
