This cooling sauce, prepared by lightly flavoring yogurt with grated cucumber and fresh mint, is the balancing accompaniment to spicy dishes in Indian cuisine. It offers a refreshing taste alongside spicy curries and biryanis.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Drain the cucumber

4 min

Squeeze the grated cucumber firmly with your hands to drain it thoroughly, otherwise the sauce will quickly become watery.

2

Mix with the yogurt

4 min

Add the drained cucumber, fresh mint, and crushed cumin to the yogurt and mix well.

3

Salt and serve

2 min

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

Reminder

Allergen: contains dairy products. Important: briefly toasting cumin in a dry pan and crushing it noticeably strengthens its aroma compared to using it fresh. Note: if you don't drain the cucumber's water, the sauce can become watery quickly and lose its consistency.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Sprinkling a pinch of ground red pepper over the sauce before serving both brightens its appearance and adds a light spicy note; this presentation, frequently used in Indian cuisine, is a small but effective detail.
