This Indian salad punches up a meal with its tart and tangy taste and its crisp, crunchy texture. It makes an ideal partner to dal, naan, raita, and curry dishes. Or serve it alongside western favourites - roast chicken, barbecued ribs, or chilli con carne. It uses no oil, so it's low in fat but high in flavour.

Ingredients

• 1 small cucumber
• 1 tomato
• 1/2 small red onion
• 1 to 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro (or fresh coriander)
• 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon finely chopped peeled, fresh ginger
• 1/8 teaspoon, roasted RUCHI cumin seeds
• 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
• 1 teaspoon RUCHI CHAT MASALA
• 1 tablespoon RUCHI Olive Oil
• Salt & pepper

Directions

1. Take the cucumber peel & slice it and cut into quarters lengthwise, and then cut across the strips into 1/4-inch pieces. Dice the tomato. Chop the red onion.
2. Combine the cucumber, tomato, red onion, cilantro, ginger, and cumin seeds. At this point the salad may be covered and chilled for up to two hours until ready to serve.
3. About five minutes before serving, toss the salad with the chat masala and lime juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
