Raita Recipe (Indian Yogurt Sauce)

Step 1

Set out a large food processor. Combine the yogurt, fresh produce, and spices to the food processor. Purée until very smooth.

Step 2

Then open the lid and slowly drizzle olive oil into the Raita to emulsify and create a silkier texture.

Step 3

Once smooth, turn off the food processor. Chill until ready to serve.

Step 4

Set out a medium mixing bowl. Combine the yogurt, lime juice, salt, and ground cumin. Mix with a spoon.

Step 5

Then stir in finely diced cucumber, onion, and cilantro. Add oil or sugar if desired. (For chunky raita, you may want to add an extra, ¼ cup of yogurt.)

Step 6

Chill until ready to serve.
