Adam Liaw’s tomato, onion and cucumber raita
Raitas are often thought of as cooling but are more for balance in a meal – strongly spiced dishes should have a mildly spiced raita. This version is a little more “belt and braces” than most but feel free to leave out any ingredients (except the yoghurt).
Ingredients
2 cups thick yoghurt
1 small cucumber, deseeded, finely diced
1 tomato, deseeded, finely diced
½ red onion, finely diced
¼ cup finely chopped coriander, plus extra to serve
1 small green chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp ground cumin, plus extra to serve
Method
Whisk the yoghurt in a bowl until smooth. Add the remaining ingredients, mix well and adjust the seasoning. Scatter with a little extra cumin and coriander to serve.
