  • Put the yogurt, cilantro, cumin, lemon juice, and salt and pepper, to taste, into a blender and puree until the mixture is smooth and green. Pour it into a bowl and fold in the cucumber and mint.

2 pints thick yogurt (recommended: Greek yogurt)
1/2 bunch cilantro leaves, chopped
1 teaspoon cumin seed
1 lemon, juiced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cucumbers, peeled, seeded and chopped
2 tablespoons chopped mint leaves
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling

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.
