This refreshing sauce is made by lightly flavoring yogurt with grated cucumber and fresh mint. In Indian cuisine, it balances spicy dishes and makes a cooling accompaniment to curries and biryani.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Drain the cucumber

4 min

Squeeze the grated cucumber firmly with your hands to remove as much liquid as possible; otherwise, the sauce will quickly become watery.

2

Mix with the yogurt

4 min

Stir the drained cucumber, fresh mint, and crushed cumin into the yogurt until well combined.

3

Season and serve

2 min

Season with salt and serve the sauce cold alongside a spicy curry or biryani.

Reminder

Allergen: Contains dairy. Briefly toast the cumin in a dry skillet, then crush it to bring out a stronger aroma than when used without toasting. Drain the cucumber well or the sauce will quickly become watery and lose its consistency.
