Cucumber raita

To make the raita, first heat the cumin seeds in a dry pan on medium heat until it begins to toast, about 2-3 minutes. Take the pan off the heat and immediately put the cumin in a bowl or container to prevent it from cooking further in the pan

In another bowl, mix the yoghurt with chopped mint and half the toasted cumin. Add salt to taste

Add the diced cucumber to the yoghurt and mix well

To finish, sprinkle with the remaining toasted cumin and serve
