2 cups plain yogurt
1/2 medium cucumber, peeled
2 medium tomatoes, ripe and firm
1/4 cup finely chopped parsley or cilantro
2 tsp. minced fresh mint leaves
2-3 Tbsp. milk or water
1/4 tsp. sea salt
2 green onions, finely chopped
1/4 tsp. pepper
dash cayenne
Peel cucumber, scoop out and discard seeds. Chop cucumber into 1/4" dice or shred, using coarsest blade on your shredder.
Blanch tomatoes in boiling water just for a minute. Remove skin. Cut in half, scoop out seeds and discard. Chop into fine dice.
Combine all ingredients and let sit for one hour before serving. Adjust to taste with salt and pepper. Add more milk if you desire thinner consistency.
Serve with any Indian meal (very cooling with spicy food!).
