Ingredients
- 1 cup yogurt plain, Greek
- 1/2 lemon juice (1 tbsp)
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/2 tsp cumin ground
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp sugar
- 1 red onion cut into thin rings, medium
- 1 red chili diced (fresno or chili of choice)
- 1/3 cup mint chopped, leaves
- 1/8 tsp red chili powder optional
- 1/8 tsp chaat masala optional
Instructions
- In a bowl whisk together the yogurt, lemon juice and water to thin yogurt. You want this to have a loose consistency, but not watery (it needs to cling to the onions). Stir through the cumin, salt and sugar. Let sit while you slice onion.
- Use a sharp knife or mandolin and thinly slice the red onion into rings. You'll need 1 cup total, save remaining onion for other use. Rinse onion in sieve under cold water (this helps remove sharpness, optional).
- Remove seeds from red chili. Slice into thin strips and then dice. Chop the mint leaves.
- Transfer the onions, red chili and mint to the yogurt mixture and stir to mix thoroughly.
- Serve immediately with a sprinkle of red chili powder or chaat masala on top, or chill, covered, for 30 minutes for flavors to develop (optional).
