I cut this recipe in half. It isn't the most visually appealing recipe as I was hoping due to the amount of yogurt indicated, but I enjoyed it very much so nevertheless. Very refreshing! Note: you will have to drain the yogurt water out of the dip before serving on the table. I was thinking how fabulous this would be with masala potatoes. Tonight we served it with an Asian/ Indian meal. I used only one half of a jalapeno for the adjusted serving that I prepared. I would think for many people, two whole jalapenos would be too hot. Next time I might try toasting whole cumin seeds instead of using powdered cumin. Char, keep the raita recipes coming. Thanks for sharing. Cookgirl
