    I prepared the cucumber raita today to go along with the spicy mutton roast and basmati rice, and it tied the meal together very nicely. In fact we loved the recipe so much that I cannot imagine making cucumber raita any other way. Thank you Sue, you are great!

    Cucumber Raita,This is a very cooling sauce to go with spicy curries and other hot and piquant dishes. Try spooning it over your rice or dipping pieces of chapatis into it. Very good!,I prepared the cucumber raita today to go along with the spicy mutton roast and basmati rice, and it tied the meal together very nicely. In fact we loved the recipe so much that I cannot imagine making cucumber raita any other way. Thank you Sue, you are great!,I made this last night. I have zero experience with raita. used one jalapeno. Our grocery store doesn’t carry a wide selection of peppers. I was worried that my 9 year old would not be able to handle the one chili but he loved this stuff. In fact, he wanted to take the leftovers for lunch. used Greek low-fat yogurt- something that I haven’t used before. I think that I may have to make a double batch this weekend.
