Tofu Raita

Vegetarian Times Issue: October 1, 2006   p.61

Vegan              30 minutes or fewer

 

This classic Indian condiment is usually made with yogurt. We’ve substituted silken tofu, lemon juice and vinegar for the same creamy-tangy taste without the dairy.

Directions

  1. Purée tofu, oil, lemon juice, vinegar and salt in food processor until smooth. Transfer to medium bowl.
  2. Stir in cucumber, 2 Tbs. peanuts, chile, mint and cumin. Sprinkle remaining peanuts on top.
