This is a simple recipe that is used as a compliment to any indian dishes. Pour it over your favorite curry, or masala,or dip samosas or nann in this yummy refreshing sauce.

Indian Raita

1 1/2 Cups Yogurt

1/2 seeded cucumber finely chopped or shredded

2 tbs. finely chopped red onion

1 tbs. fresh mint finely chopped

1 tbs. cilantro finely chopped

1/8 tsp. ground cumin

1/8 tsp salt

3 tbs. cream or milk

Mix all together and let blend for at least 2 hours before serving. If it is too thick add more milk or cream to make it the desired consistancy. It should be slightly runny.

 
Non-fat should be fine. I always use the lowfat and that seems

to work out well for me. I just like the mouth feel of having a touch of the milk fats in my raita. Let me know how it works out with the nonfat. I am interested now.
