Mast O Khiyar (Yogurt And Cucumbers)

1. Leave skins on cucumbers for color.

2. Mix all ingredients, add garnish.

3. Chill and serve.

4. Garnish with sprigs of fresh mint.

5. Only if you have no choice should you use dried mint. It just isn't as good. We eat it this way in winter when we have no fresh mint, as a sauce on rice with an Iranian stew.
