A visually spectacular citrus-ginger raita is an amazing condiment to serve with Pacific West’s chilli squid. The raita without the oil can be made 2 days prior and refrigerated. This allows the dish to be served and plated in well under 10 minutes. Ideal as a shared plate, starter or main meal. Great for any venue wanting to add interesting menu options. Labour light, delicious and a great profit opportunity!
