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.

Tyler had this recipe almost like we have always made it.
We usually shred the cucumber.
And as a variation - we sometimes make this with onions, tomatoes & chillies [all chopped fine] and added to the yogurt with salt & pepper - and then garnished with chopped cilantro.
I don't remember ever adding any citric juice to it - or cummin seeds [like he did on the show on tv].
I've never had it served with samosas - wherever in India I have eaten samosas.
Also - the correct pronunciation is not 'Rah - E - Tah' - but more like 'Reah' [as in 'Yeah'] - 'Tah' - OR - 'Rare - Tah'.
Was happy to see Indian food covered by Tyler.

I want to put this sauce on everything. It is so easy and just delicious. you have make the samosas with this dip. they are really easy. you can also use puff pastry and cut into triangles and do the same thing. you bake them at 400 and that worked great. i did both ways and both are yummy.

Totally enjoyed this simple recipe with the he samosas. I have made raita before but not with hothouse/English cukes. Don't substitute!!

Only recommendation I would make is to try Greek style or thicker yogurt, but that's a personal/minor issue.
