Cucumber Pachadi Recipe

Cucumber raita/pachadi/salad is a wonderful accompaniment to rice, roti or Biryani. I love to eat mine as a meal, with a seasoning which depends on what I feel like at that moment.

Ingredients :

  • 1 cucumber
  • 2 green chillies
  • Salt
  • 1 inch ginger grated
  • Coriander leaves
  • 3tbsp grated coconut
  • 1bowl of curds
  • 1tsp ghee/ clarified butter
  • 1tsp mustard
  • 1 red chilly
  • 2 sprigs curry leaves

Method:
Wash, Deskin and chop the Cucumber fine. Add the grated coconut and curd to it. Grate the ginger and mince the green chillies. Crush them along with salt and drop into the Pachadi. Heat a tsp of ghee. Drop in a tsp of mustard and after it splutters add one broken red chilly. Toss. Add the curry leaves. Season the pachadi. Garnish with coriander leaves.
