Raita

 Raita is a very refreshing accompaniment to the spicier Indian cuisine. Following is a recipe from our favourite Indian restaurant, Modern India Buffet, in Hamilton Ontario. Adjust the seasonings accordingly to your liking, keeping in mind that you can always add more!

1 to 1 an a half Cups Plain Yogurt

1 Cucumber – peeled and diced

Garam Masala

Salt

Dried Gelatin, crushed, small amount

Grated Fresh Ginger

1-2 Cloves Garlic, crushed

Fresh Mint Leaves, finely chopped

1. Combine all ingredients into a food processor or a blender until smooth and creamy.
2. Taste and adjust your seasonings if necessary.
3. Refrigerate until ready to use.

This goes very well with Tandoori Chicken. Must be consumed within a few days.

Enjoy!
