Ingredients and Method to make Apple Raita
1 large apple cut into small pieces (yielded approx 1 1/2 cups of cut pieces)
1 1/4 cup plain yogurt
1/2 tsp salt (or to taste)
1 tsp fine sugar
1/2 tsp cumin seeds dry roasted and powdered
1/2 tsp red chili powder (or to taste) (can be substituted with cayenne powder)
In a small pan, dry roast cumin seeds on low to medium low heat until it emits an aroma. Remove and powder using a spice grinder or a mortar and pestle until fine or slightly coarse.
Whisk plain yogurt until smooth. Add all the spices and sugar to it and mix well.

Add apple pieces to it, chill and serve with some pulao or mixed vegetable rice.
This time I served it with this spinach with black bean rice and the combination tasted fantastic. The slightly sweet- spicy taste of this raita complemented the flavors of the rice well :)
