Cucumber, yogurt, mint, salt, white pepper, garlic (roasted if possible),
cumin, and some kind of liquid to thin it further. Water, whey from making
paneer, chicken stock, or buttermilk would work. If you want to put forth a
little more effort, you can make a strongly-flavored "tomato water" by
puréeing tomatoes and then straining them through a coffee filter.
