DIRECTIONS
Cooling raita is a staple in Indian and Middle Eastern cuisines. It cools hot curries, but it's also great with mild dishes and spiced grilled meats and even as a dip. See below for a variation. Please use fresh cilantro in this recipe for the best flavor. Each serving is 1/4 cup.- Peel and grate the cucumber, squeeze out excess water and place into a medium bowl.
- To the bowl add the yogurt, minced mint and cilantro, salt and curry powder. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour to allow flavors to blend.
