How to Make Creamy Cucumber Raita at Home

Cool down with this refreshing Cucumber Mint Raita—creamy yogurt blended with crisp cucumber and fresh mint for the perfect side to spicy dishes or as a light dip. Today’s dip is Raita, a cooling and creamy classic that originates from the Indian subcontinent. Raita is a well-loved condiment. It is made primarily from dahi (a type of yogurt also known as curd). It often includes raw or cooked vegetables, herbs, and spices. Its main role is to offer a refreshing contrast. This contrast enhances the enjoyment of the bold and spicy dishes typically found in Indian and South Asian cuisine. Raita’s creamy base balances the heat of dishes like curries, kebabs, and biryanis. This balance makes it an essential addition to many traditional meals.
