Vrat Wala Aloo Ka Raita

Potatoes are a good source of fibres, potassium, vitamin C and vitamin B6. Potatoes are considered as a heart healthy food because of lack of cholesterol. On the other hand curd is an amazing refreshment and a good source of Protein, Vitamin B12, Pantothenic Acid, Potassium and Zinc. So the combination of both makes this raita very nutritious.

If you are making for fasting add sendha namak in place of regular salt. Some people don’t eat red chilli and cumin seeds on fasting days and some people eat. So skip or add spices which you prefer in your fasting food.
