A lot of us love food on the fly thats not just healthy but tasty too. What better than cucumber which is light on calories, with a dash of pulses to amp up your protein intake? Sounds like a steal right. you will also save up on time and not miss out of healthy food.
Ingredients:
Ingredients:
- Cucumber ( Peeled and chopped finely) - 2
- Green chilli - 1/2 to 1 (Deseed and chop finely)
- Salt - To Taste
- Juice of half a lemon
- Coriander finely chopped - 2 Tsp
- Green Gram (skinned and broken) - 2 Tbsp
Method:
- Soak the pulse in water for 15 to 20 minutes. Whenever I am running out of time, i heat it up in the microwave for a couple of minutes to soften it up faster.
- Mix all the ingredients. squeeze up the lemon juice on top and garnish with coriander.
- Serve chilled.
This can be eaten as is, as a salad, although kosumari is usually served in traditional elai sapadu as an accompaniment. A healthy snack in itself, you can indulge in this without an iota of guilt.
Enjoy and let me know how you do it.
