Add coarsely chopped peanuts and mix.

Step 3

Heat oil in a small vessel. When smoking hot, add cumin seeds and mustard seeds. When it starts sputtering, add remaining half chopped jalepenõ, being careful not to splash oil on to yourself. Add curry leaves. When leaves begin to crisp, pour this hot tempering into your raita. Mix well.
