  1. 1

    Peel cucumber and cut lengthways in half. Slice each half finely. Heat a small pan over a low heat and toast cumin seeds until they darken a little and smell fragrant. Allow them to cool, then crush with a rolling pin or pestle and mortar.

  2. 2

    Beat the yoghurt until smooth, then stir in the cumin and salt. Add the cucumber to the yoghurt, then transfer to a serving dish and garnish with cucumber slices and paprika.
