## Notes

* firstly, soaking boondi in warm water helps to reduce oil and also makes boondi soft.

* also, if you are looking for crispy boondi raita then avoid soaking in water and add boondi just before serving.

* additional, if the batter is thick then the boondi will have a tail. if the batter is watery then boondi will fall flat. so make sure to have the right consistency.

* finally, **boondi raita recipe** tastes great when prepared slightly thick curd.
