This is an incredibly simple and easy snack to make. Its healthy and tasty. Rare combination I know, but do try it out. Goes well with drinks.

Ingredients
  • Cucumbers - 2-4 nos
  • Salt - to taste
  • Tabasco Sauce - 1 - 2tsp
  • Lemon juice - 1/2 a lemon
  • Vinegar - 1-2 tsp
  • Chat Masala - 1 tsp
  • Chili flakes - to taste
  • Crushed Garlic - 2-3 nos
  • Coriander leaves - 1/2 cup, finely chopped

Method
1. Crush the garlic in the vinegar and keep aside.
2. Don't peel the cucumber, the skin adds a crunchy texture to it. Wash it, clean it well and cut into thin strips.
3. Add all the above ingredients including the crushed garlic in vinegar. Toss them in a large salad bowl.
4. Serve chilled.
