Pinkblanket's KitchenCucumber Raita 🥗
This is a very basic Indian staple that goes well with many fried or spicy dishes. Not only it has a cooling effect but It also helps to refresh the palate as well as balance the heat of your spicy dishes. Some like their yogurt thin, we love ours thick and creamy.
Ingredient
1 1/2 C
plain yogurt (as needed)
1/3 C
finely diced red onion
1/3 C
Finely chopped coriander
1/3 C
Finely chopped mints
1-2 tbsp
lemon juice - adjust accordingly
1/2 tsp
salt (or as needed)
As needed
- ground white pepper
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Prepare ingredients accordingly. Cut/chop coriander and mints. Next, Cut cucumbers. Remove or core the middle part of the cucumber or the cucumber seed using a teaspoon. This part is removed because it produces excess water to the salad. Dice cucumbers (see pic) and place in a mixing bowl. Sprinkle 1 tsp of salt, mix evenly and leave aside for 5 to 10mins to draw out excess water. After 5-10mins, discard excess liquid. Rinsing is not needed.
* Step 2
Once all prepped, place cucumber, coriander, mint, red onion, yogurt, lemon juice, ground white pepper and garam masala (if using) in a big mixing bowl. Combine and Mix everything well. Taste and adjust seasonings accordingly. Refrigerate before serving or keep cool.
