  • Use plain whole-milk yogurt for the best results.
  • Whisk the yogurt before adding the cucumber to make it lump-free.
  • Do not add water to the raita. There is enough water in the cucumber to dilute the yogurt.
  • I highly recommend using cucumber with its skin on for its beneficial health effects.
  • Add only a few mint leaves, as these are strong in flavour.
