Kachumber

🇮🇳 Indian

Kachumber salad, raw crunch with lime and chaat energy. The soothing counterpart every spicy plate is quietly asking for. Essential beside anything with the word 'vindaloo' in it.

Prep 10 min Cook 2 min Serves 4 Easy

Ingredients

  • Saltto taste
  • Tomato3, chopped
  • Lemon1
  • Cucumber1, diced
  • Red Onion1, thinly sliced
  • Roasted Cumin1 tsp

Optional extras

  • Green Chili1, finely chopped
  • Fresh Cilantro2 tbsp, chopped

Instructions

  1. 1

    Whisk the yogurt till smooth and pourable; thick curds want a spoon of milk or water.

  2. 2

    Prepare the cucumber fine enough that every spoonful gets some.

  3. 3

    Mix the cucumber in gently — raita should look marbled, not beaten.

  4. 4

    Rest ten minutes in the fridge so the flavours get acquainted.

  5. 5

    Finish with the tomato on top and take it to the table cold.

Chef's tip

Roasted cumin powder is the whole personality — make it fresh.
