The Sober Cafe
Vegetarian
Grandma's cucumber and yogurt salad

To make this recipe suitable for vegans, replace the yogurt, milk and sour cream  with your favorite dairy free varieties! ~Alceon

Ingredients:

  • 1 Tablespoon cumin seeds
  • 1 cup yogurt
  • 1 cucumber, peeled and shredded
  • 1/2 medium tomato, chopped small (opt.)
  • 2 Tablespoons milk
  • 2 Tablespoons fresh coriander leaves (cilantro), chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon onion, chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon sour cream (opt.)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 pinches hot red pepper powder

Directions:

Roast cumin seeds in a dry skillet -- no oil -- stirring constantly, until lightly
browned (about 2-3 minutes). Grind seeds in a blender or mortar and then combine the ground seeds in a bowl with the rest of the ingredients. Add 1-2 Tablespoons water as needed, enough to make a creamy consistency.

Serve in individual small bowls or cups. Makes 2 cups.

Enjoy!
