- 1 teaspoon ground cumin

After feedback from the others I added 1 cup diced tomato and reduced the salt. I enjoyed the recipe. I however have a fantastic raita blend from the Ajika company that I use on a regular basis and I love the roasted cumin and mint in the blend. I love foods from all over the world and I have found Ajika spices on amazon and indianfoodsco. I recommend their spice blends if you like to cook foods from India and elsewhere.

Recipe has error in amount of salt -- I should have used common sense and not put in the 2 Teaspoons as requested in the text. As one other person noted below -- ruins the recipe. Might have been good...

I followed the recipe to the "T". Clearly 2 TLBs is too much salt. Spoiled all the ingredients.
