Servings: 14
Author Notes: Serve this dipping sauce with Idaho Curry Potato Wedges.
Ingredients: 2 cups plain yogurt (non-fat or regular)
1 large cucumber, peeled, seeded and grated
1 cup finely chopped fresh mint
2 tablespoons orange marmalade
1/2 teaspoon roasted cumin seeds
1/2 to 1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
Instructions: Makes 14 Servings -- 1/3 Cup Each

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk yogurt until creamy; stir in grated cucumber, mint, marmalade and cumin seeds if using.

Taste sauce, then add any or all of the optional seasonings, as desired. Transfer sauce to a serving bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until needed. Stir before serving. (Raita can be prepared one day before serving.)

Note:
To roast cumin seeds, place seeds in a hot frying pan and cook for 2 - 3 minutes over medium-high heat until they begin to turn brown. Let seeds cool on a paper towel.
