Cucumber raita is the simple raita,that goes well with any type of pulao or veg biryani or as a condiment for chapathi with kuruma . As my DH is not fond of any type of raita, so usually i make my favorite onion raita for any types of pulao. But after tasting this cucumber raita in restaurants(they usually serve along with chapathi and kuruma), i have quite fond of this raita and usually make this make while preparing chapathi. But i was hesitant to pair with rice,for a change, today i served this along with veg biryani and it really a super combo. So let's see the procedure now.
Coriander leaves - for garnishing
