Walnut Raita

Sanjiv Singh
This recipe provides an interesting dimension to the very common khiray ka raita, a good summer dish. This is just what you want if you are looking for something to balance some of the spicy dishes.
Serves 5-6.

3 cups yogurt
1 large cucumber peeled and coarsely grated
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh coriander
1/2 fresh green chilli, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt or to taste
freshly ground pepper to taste
1/2 cup shelled walnuts broken up into 1/2 inch pieces

 Put the yogurt in a bowl. Beat it lightly until it is smooth. Add the other ingredients and stir to mix
