PROCESS ✅

Step 1 :

First taste all cucumber before the chopping , because sometimes it is bitter in taste and can spoil your whole currry . This time I used yellow cucumber , to chooped this you don’t need to peel the skin , just make 2 part and cut in the pieces . If the cucumber is ripe than make small pieces .

After chooping , wash it properly with the water and stains all water .

On the other side cut the green chilli and tomato. This time I don’t have tomato so i just skipped tomato and add dry mango powere at the last to give it a tangy flavour.

Step 2 :

Now heat oil in a kadai , to make this curry we need minimum oil , you can use any type of oil , this time i use mustard oil .

When the oil is hot , add cumin seeds , hing . And when cumin seeds start to crackle first add green chilies, saute for some second than add cucumber pieces .

Give it a quick mix and add salt and turmeric powder. Again mix well , add little water , cover it and cook for 2-3 minutes.

Step 3 :

After 2 min check it . If it is not cooked add some more water and again cook it. Cook it on the low to medium flame .
When it is 80% cooked , add red chilli powder, coriander powder and garam masala and again cook it for 1-2 min .

When it is cooked add dry mango powder. If you add tomato you can skip to add mango powder.
