CUCUMBER RAITA, SUPER SIMPLE, QUICK AND EASY.
Another adapted recipe from one of my favourite cookbooks: Step-by-step cookery series " Salads and Summer dishes". I like this because there's no mint, no tomato like in many other raita recipes and the addition of chili powder gives it extra zing. Cooking time includes 30 minutes chilling time. ZWT REGION: India.

CUCUMBER RAITA
Serve this cool, refreshing salad with my Lamb Tagine and Moroccan Couscous on this site. Make the salad early in the day and keep in the refrigerator to let the flavors blend and intensify. Add more mint to taste, but do not substitute dried mint; the flavor is just not the same.

- You may peel the cucumbers or leave the skin on. Grate them using a coarse grater. Once grated, squeeze out the excess water from the cucumber and place them aside in another mixing bowl. You don’t actually need to remove the water to the last drop but just some of the excess so that the raita doesn’t turn out too watery.
- If the coconut milk has solidified, beat it well into a smooth creamy mixture first. If you are using vegan yogurt instead, beat it to a smooth consistency too.
- Then add all the rest of the ingredients into the mixing bowl with the grated cucumber and mix well.
- Lastly add the salt to taste. If you are not serving the raita right away, you may refrigerate it without the salt. Then add the salt in just before serving.
