Savory Cucumber lassi

Savory cucumber lassi recipe – Lassi is a very popular yogurt based drink from India. There are different varieties of lassies. It can be either sweet or salty.   A simple savory lassi generally has plain yogurt, water, spices and salt. This is generally the base of any savory lassi recipe. Lassi is a great soothing drink during the summer time.

Today i have added cucumber, coriander leaves, green chilly (optional), ginger and salt to the lassi.  It keeps you hydrated and flushes out the toxins. Its helps to reduce the acidity too.  The addition of cucumber in the Lassi, helps to cool down the palate after a spicy meal.

When it comes to sweet lassis, the most popular one is the mango lassi. check out my mango lassi.
