Kachumbar

Kachumbar is a salad we eat as an accompaniment to other foods like Patla Masoor, or other dals etc. There are several variations to it, and every family, seems to have a special way of making it, or a special ingredient in it. Here is ours.

Chop as finely as possible the following ingredients

1 medium onion
1 medium tomato
1/2 bunch cilantro (remove the stalks and use the leaves only)
1/2 cucumber (optional)

Mix all these veges in a bowl with salt, pepper and sugar to taste. Serve with food!

Nice and easy, isn't it! I like to prepare this about an hour before we eat, because the veges release their juices and the water that collects at the bottom of the dish is my favourite part.
