Ingredients
- 1 hothouse/English cucumber (medium)(seeded and diced)
- 3 tomatoes (sseded and diced)
- ½ red onion (peeled and diced)
- 1 cup radishes (diced)
- 2 tbsp cilantro (stalks and leaves, chopped)
- ½ lime (juice of)
- salt & pepper
- pinch chilli flakes (mild) (optional)
Instructions
- Combine all the diced ingredients and stir well with the cilantro, lime juice, salt and pepper. Decant into a serving bowl or platter and sprinkle with mild chilli flakes and serve.
Notes
- Make in advance - Make in advance (up to 3 days) and refrigerate. The icy coldness of a refrigerated kachumber will add even more help if your main dish is high on the spicy spectrum.
- Yoghurt dressing - If you want a simple yoghurt dressing mix 2 tbsp plain yoghurt with 1 garlic clove (finely minced into a puree), salt & pepper and a squeeze of lemon juice. Dollop it on top of the kachumber just before serving, then sprinkle over some mild chilli flakes.
- Storing - Kachumber will stay fresh in the fridge for 3-4 days. It is NOT suitable for freezing.
