Recipe Notes

The taste of green chili may not go well for everyone, so you can skip if you don’t like the smell or heat of raw chili if you are making it for biryani.
One tsp chopped onions can be used instead of green chili for biryani raita. Using both may make the dish pungent. Alternately you can soak onions for a while in water to reduce the pungency. Drain off and then chop.
one tbsp. chopped cucumber can also be added for biryani raita.
