Assalamu Alaikum
We like to have this salad with curries, akhnis and biryanis. It's easy to make and has a wonderful refreshing flavour.[/color]

Ingredients:
1 cucumber, very thinly sliced
1 onion also very thinly sliced
1 finely chopped green chillie (optional)
vinegar
sugar
salt & pepper to taste
chopped coriander (optional)[/b]

1. Arrange cucumber at the bottom of a shallow dish.
2. Place onions on top of cucumber.
3. Sprinkle chillies over if using.
4. Pour over enough vinegar to cover the onions.
5. Sprinkle over approximately 1 and a half teaspoons of sugar (more or less if you prefer)
6. Sprinkle over salt, pepper and coriander if you have.
7. Cover with a lid or foil/cling-wrap and let it marinate for 1 hour or more before serving with your meal.

Hope you find it to your taste,
Was Salaam
