Cucumber Raita [Food Processor Attachment]
Cucumbers, yogurt and a few other seasonings make this simple, yet tasty and cooling. If cilantro isn't preferred, add dill. If you do not like spicy, omit the serrano.
Ingredients
- 1 cup (240 ml) nonfat greek yogurt [or cashew yogurt]
- ⅓ cup (15 g) fresh cilantro leaves, stems removed
- 1 serrano pepper
- ½ teaspoon garam masala
- 1 medium (385 g) English cucumber, about 2 3/4 cups
Directions
- Fit the Food Processor with the Multi-Use Blade.
- Place yogurt, cilantro, serrano chile, and garam masala into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the lid.
- Start the machine and process for 10 seconds. Scrape the side of the container and add the cucumber. Secure the lid, and pulse 5-6 times or until cucumber is evenly chopped or desired consistency is reached. Store in an airtight container and store before serving.
Chef's Notes
- Overprocessing this will result in a spread that is very watery. Only pulse the minimum number of times needed to make sure you have a dip that is the proper consistency.
