Lime & Coriander Raita

So simple, delicious and refreshing... why didn't I ever make this before?!

Here's the recipe:

Lime & Coriander Raita
(Serves 2)

1/2 cucumber, grated
Juice of 1 lime
125ml or 1/2 cup natural yogurt
bunch of fresh coriander

Method:
In a food processor, whizz the yogurt, lime juice and coriander until well blended
Pour the yogurt mix into your serving bowl.
Before adding the grated cucumber, extract the excess liquid. You can do this by simply taking a handful and squeezing it in your fist (over a plate or bowl of course!).
Thoroughly mix into the yogurt.

Serve this cooling "wet salad" with curry, fish, spicy meat... or simply use in the same way as you would coleslaw.

I made this to go with the Channa Masala I made as part of the Google+ cook-a-long.

You can keep this in the fridge for up to 3 days in an airtight container.

You can also experiment using lemon juice, different herbs, like parsley, chives or dill. How about adding some chilli or garlic?
