Dahi chutney | Dahi ki chutney | Spiced Yogurt dip with step-by-step photos

Dahi chutney is a spiced and flavored yogurt sauce made with a few basic spices and herbs. It is popular as a side dish with biryani and pulao or as a dip with fried fish and fried chicken.

This chutney resembles green raita chutney. It is an excellent condiment or a dip for most Pakistani snacks or deep-fried fritters. The taste of this chutney is a combination of mild and spicy tastes with a mint flavor.

Additionally, I have already shared green raita chutney, quick spicy raita, and cumin raita on my blog. This is another easy and simple version of Dahi chutney. This yogurt chutney can work with boondi, Dahi bhale, and chana chat.

For the best result, follow my detailed step-by-step photo

instructions and tips above the recipe card

Recipe notes:

I used homemade yogurt for this recipe, and I would like to strongly recommend the same for this recipe
Having said that, if you are running short of time, then you can use store-bought yogurt
For additional ingredients, I used milk instead of water. Milk maintains the yogurt taste,e whereas water has a thin consistency and lowers the taste of yogurt
I have just used a few mint leaves to bring the mint flavor into the chutney. Don’t use coriander or a large amount of mint, as the Dahi chutney will become like a green raita chutney.

Whisk smooth, making sure the yogurt blends well with spices.

Lastly, pour the milk mixture into the spiced yogurt.

Stir to combine them.

Dahi chutney is ready.

White Zarda Rice| Sweet Rice | How to Make Zarda Rice with step-by-step photos and video

White Zarda Rice is a traditional Pakistani sweet dish, which is a must for every occasion. It is easy to make and consists of simple ingredients rather than rich and calorie-dense ingredients. This white zerda is made by boiling rice with sugar, flavored with cardamom, raisins, saffron, pistachios, and almonds.

My Latest Sweet Rice Video:

But here I did some variations in zerda; it looks a bit different from traditional orange zerda. Additionally, I added green and red coloring along with homemade khoya and ashrafi that you find in any local shop or store.

If it is hard to find, you can use Tutty Fruity instead of Ashrafi and skip a few ingredients like raisins and saffron. Additionally, you can also garnish it with small gulab jamun and chum, so let's go ahead with the preparation.

Recipe tips:

To prepare zarda rice, it is best to use sella rice instead of basmati rice. When serving, garnish the zarda with small-sized gulab jamun and chum chum sweets, along with khoya and dry fruits. Zarda can be stored in the refrigerator and consumed within 3-4 days. When using sella rice, make sure to cook it thoroughly (100%). If the rice is not fully cooked, it will harden after being placed in the sugar syrup. If you want to make orange or yellow zarda, add a pinch of food coloring while boiling the rice.
