We all must have come across this healthy, light
and refreshing Cucumber Lassi in all most all the North Indian restaurant
menus. Lassi is an Indian yogurt drink with thick and creamy texture. Lassi can
be made either sweet or savoury. Today I am going to share a savoury cucumber lassi,
which is perfect body coolant and super refreshing. If you are on diet or on
weight loss regimen then you should consume this cucumber lassi to improve your
metabolism. Try out his lovely Cucumber Lassi and post your comments here.

Method
Peel and chop the cucumber. Chop green chillies
and ginger. Wash the mint and coriander leaves.
Add cucumber, green chillies, ginger, mint
leaves, coriander leaves, salt to the blender and grind it.
Add yogurt/curd and blend it for about a minute.
Pour it to the serving glass and sprinkle ½ tsp
of cumin powder.
Serve this refreshing and healthy cucumber lassi
immediately.
Suggestions:
If you do not have coriander and mint leaves, it
is totally fine. You can skip those and make the lassi.
I have used cumin powder you can very well
replace it with chaat masala and serve the lassi.
