Kachumber is a simple, delicious Indian chopped salad that takes just minutes to make. It provides a welcome freshness to any Indian meal, and works particularly well with kebabs and grilled meat.
Kachumber is so straightforward to make that a recipe isn’t really necessary. But for the record, here’s the way I make it.
Kachumber
(serves 4)
- 2 small seedless cucumbers, diced
- 20 baby plum tomatoes, diced (should be about the same amount as the cucumber)
- 1 small red onion, diced
- 1/2 cup coriander leaves, minced
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- a pinch of chilli flakes (or to taste)
- juice of a lime
- 1 Tb sunflower oil
- salt and pepper
- In a serving bowl, mix together the cucumber, tomato, red onion and coriander.
- Whisk together the cumin, chilli flakes, lime juice and oil and toss with the vegetables.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.

Refreshing sounding indeed and a suitable accompaniment to the spicy Indian main dishes. Similar for he classic Lebanese chopped salad that Ottolenghi uses.
