Cucumber

The best cumin powder to use for a raita is dry roasted. If you can take the time (just 5 minutes), bake the cumin seeds until they are a little dark, and then grind them in as price grinder, or under a rolling pin. This process gives extra-special flavor.

In bowl mix yogurt, water, salt, and cayenne. Add cucumbers to yogurt mixture. Sprinkle cumin powder on top. Garnish with coriander leaves.

ITEMS:

2 CUP YOGURTS

½ CUP WATER

2 LARGE CUCUMBER (PEELED AND SLICED

IN ½-INCH ROUNDS)

2 TEASPOON CUMIN POWDER

½ CUPFRESH CORIANDER LEAVES
