CUCUMBER AND RADISH RAITA

Cucumber and Radish Raita image

This can be spicy or not, depending on what you are serving it with and your taste for heat. Cucumber raita (without the radishes) is a classic accompaniment to curries, but I like it on its own and spooned over grains. It's also very nice with salmon.
