Kachumber


Kachumber is a vegetable based salad from the north Indian region which is quite simple and quick to prepare like a Mexican salsa. It uses the commonly available ingredients from an Indian kitchen, chiefly comprising of cucumber, tomato and red onions. Herbs and spices are thrown in to bring out the flavors associated with Indian palates.
 
Ingredients:
1 small cucumber, peeled and cubed
1 tomato, chopped
1 red onion, peeled and chopped
1 to 2 green chilies, chopped
A handful of mint and cilantro leaves, finely chopped
1/2 tsp. cumin powder (optional)
Salt to taste
Lemon juice to taste

Method:
* Combine everything in a mixing bowl and toss to mingle.
* Taste and adjust the seasonings if needed and serve immediately.
