Recipe
Cucumber Salad (Trend-style, Shaken in a Jar)
Put on Cucumber Salad (Trend-style, Shaken in a Jar) when you want something lighter and the evening is already moving.
You'll taste the onion and tomato or passata first.
Plan on about 30 minutes, most of it hands-off.
Ingredients
- 1–2 onion
- 2 medium or 1 cup tomato or passata
- 1–2 tbsp ginger-garlic
- spices (turmeric, cumin, garam masala), to taste
- 2 tbsp oil or ghee
Steps
- Whisk yogurt smooth; add grated or diced veg from your list.
- Season with roasted cumin, salt, and a pinch of chili if you like heat.
- Chill 10 min if possible so flavors meld; serve cold alongside the main dish.

Tips
- Taste for salt before it leaves the pan. The pinch is easy to miss.
- Keep ginger and garlic moving in the oil so they toast instead of burn.
- Warm the bowl. A hot dish on a cold plate goes quiet in a minute.
