CUCUMBER AND RADISH SALAD WITH YOGURT AND CUMIN



Cucumber and Radish Salad With Yogurt and Cumin image

This is based on a recipe from Mark Peel's "New Classic Family Dinners." Slice the cucumbers and radishes as thin as you can. I use an inexpensive plastic Japanese mandolin for this. (Make sure to use the guard so you don't cut your fingertips!) I eat this as a salad and also as a delicious bruschetta or crostini topping.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 pound cucumbers, peeled if the skin is thick, preferably seedless (Japanese, Persian or hothouse)

1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1/3 cup thick Greek style yogurt
1 small garlic clove, puréed
