salt to taste
140 g plain yogurt (5 oz)
1 pinch chili powder
1 pinch ground cumin or 1 pinch roasted cumin seeds
fresh ground pepper, to taste
1 slice cucumber, dusted with
paprika, to garnish

Drain the grated cucumber well so that you squeeze out as much moisture as possible.

Chill 30 minutes in refrigerator and stir well before serving.
Dust the single cucumber slice in paprika and garnish.
