Suwanjhre Jo Matho|Moringa Flower Raita
A nutritious and delicious raita made using boiled Moringa flowers, the dish called Suhanjhre (Suwanjhre) jo Matho is a favorite of many Sindhis.
Ingredients
  • 1 Cup Curds
  • ½ cup of boiled Moringa flowers
  • Salt as per taste
  • Water as much preferred ( I used half a cup of water)
  • Half of a green chilli, finely chopped (seeds discarded)
  • Pinch of grated ginger
  • Black pepper powder and red chilli powder to garnish
  • Fresh coriander leaves to garnish
Method
  1. In a mixing bowl, take curds and whisk it well.
  2. Add water to dilute the curds so as to make a raita.
  3. Add boiled moringa flowers that are squeezed well. Make sure that the flowers are cool to touch. Hot or warm flowers will spoil the raita.
  4. Add salt, chopped green chilli, grated ginger (a pinch) and mix well.
  5. Adjust the consistency and salt.
  6. Garnish with pounded black pepper corns/ pepper powder, red chilli powder and coriander leaves.
  7. This raita tastes better if refrigerated for 20-30 minutes before serving. If you do not consume cold food, then just allow the raita to stand for 10-15 minutes at the room temperature. The flavors merge/develop well this way.
  8. Relish the nutritious raita as a side dish with the meal of your choice.
