Kheere ka Raita Aur Chaat Masala

🇮🇳 Indian

Cucumber raita with chaat masala edge, the five-minute side for pulao. Cool, spiced and always welcome next to something fiery. Essential beside anything with the word 'vindaloo' in it.

Prep 10 min Cook 1 min Serves 4 Easy

Ingredients

  • Yogurt2 cups, whisked
  • Saltto taste
  • Cucumber1, diced
  • Chaat Masala1 tsp
  • Roasted Cumin1 tsp

Optional extras

  • Green Chili1, finely chopped
  • Fresh Cilantro2 tbsp, chopped

Instructions

  1. 1

    Whisk the yogurt till smooth and pourable; thick curds want a spoon of milk or water.

  2. 2

    Get the cucumber ready: raw and crisp, or cooked and cooled; never hot into yogurt.

  3. 3

    Stir the cucumber through with the spices, reserving some cumin for the top.

  4. 4

    Let it sit covered; the salt pulls the flavours together.

  5. 5

    Finish with the yogurt on top and take it to the table cold.

Chef's tip

If the masala sticks, add water a tablespoon at a time rather than drowning the dish.
