We had this recipe as a side dish with Dry Potato Curry and Dhal and it was so delicious, so refreshing to the tongue. Such a lovely tang. The onion and the cucumber added a good contrast in texture to the smoothness of the yoghurt. A fantastic accompaniment to any curry dish. In fact, this dish will go down well with just about any dish e.g. rice dishes, casseroles, barbecues,and grills (broils). Great at a cookout. It was so easy to make and extremely quick with only 4 ingredients. You can't get much healthier that this dish. This recipe can be CELIAC FRIENDLY (people who cannot eat gluten products) if they choose plain yoghurt that is gluten free. Merlot, have you got any more great recipes like this? Please post them if you do. Thank you for posting this recipe. HUGS Chris. :-) Tip: Make this recipe just before you are ready to serve as the cucumber seeds have a high water content and can made the yoghurt runny if made way ahead of time. -
I thoroughly enjoyed this "salad". I actually find it as a nice snack between meals. It's quick and easy to make. -

Now, a little about me . . .
It's hard to believe I've been a member for over 7 years now! Once I discovered Zaar, I never looked back at the other sites. This place is truly like family, sitting around sharing great recipes, helpful hints and just chit-chatting about our daily lives.
Hubby and I were fortunate enough to be able to retire early and now enjoy traveling in our motorhome :) . Our travels have taken us all over this great country of ours and meeting new and exciting people along the way is an extra bonus. We are blessed. We usually alternate between Florida Keys and Arizona for the winters. The rest of the year, you can find us just about any place. We love our home on the lake, but there is a bit of gypsy in us both and we hit the road as much as we possibly can.

I guess my biggest pet peeve is people who are negative all the time. Because I enjoy life so much, I try to avoid such people. Life is too short.
