If you have ever had the Indian sauce raita, sometimes known as pachadi, this chilled salad is similar without some of the seasoning spices. My wife and I like to have it with BBQ or burgers instead of potato salad or cole slaw. It is both quick and easy to perpare and can easily be prepared ahead of time.
Ingredients:
1 cucumber
1 medium tomato
1/2 medium red onion
2 TBSP yogurt
2 TBSP mayonaise
1 TBSP vinegar
1 TBSP buttermilk (or milk)
Pepper
Garlic Powder
Salt
Peel, quarter and slice the cucumber. Dice the tomato. Peel and dice the red onion. Place all the sliced and diced vegetables into a bowl.
In a mixing cup or small bowl add the yogurt, mayonaise, vinegar and buttermilk. Blend. Add pepper, salt and garlic powder to taste. Stir. Pour dressing over the sliced vegetables. Refrigerate and chill until ready to serve.
Enjoy!
