- Also fine chop coriander and mint leaves (optional).
- Deseed the green chilli and chop. (optional)
- Whisk chilled yogurt in a large mixing bowl.
- Add chopped cucumber, green chilies, coriander leaves, mint leaves and salt. Mix all of them.
- Taste test and add more salt if needed. Drizzle cumin powder, ground black pepper & chaat masala (optional).
- Serve cucumber raita as a side in an Indian meal. It is usually eaten with Vegetable biryani or chicken biryani.
- Cucumber raita is best served fresh but can be chilled for a few hours.
