Chilled Cucumber Salad

  This is a soup my mom would make and chill in the refrigerator for us during the hot summer months in India. We enjoyed having this instead of plain old water. As a kid, I would just pour this from the pitcher into a glass and drink, before I run out to play.

Yogurt - 2 cups
Water - 2 cups
English Cucumber – 1, roughly chopped
Green Chilly - 1/2 (deseeded)
Grated ginger - 1/4 tsp
Salt - 1 tsp or to taste
Oil - 1/2 tsp
Mustard seeds - 1/2 tsp
Asafetida - A small pinch
Cumin - 1/2 tsp
Curry leaves - 2

• In a blender add the yogurt, water, cucumber, green chilly, grated ginger and salt and blend for a minute or until smooth in consistency and transfer to a large bowl or pitcher.

• In a pan, heat the oil and add the mustard seeds, and when they pop stir in the asafetida, cumin and curry leaves.

• Pour the seasoning over the yogurt mixture.

• Serve chilled or at room temperature.
