Cuke Poha salad

This is a very easy breezy cucumber salad recipe that my aunt used to make. Adding poha to the salad was very new to me. I tasted this many years ago and wanted to make it so badly now. My dear aunt now is old and lives in a senior facility. She used to be an excellent cook, but now she is  unable to cook a single meal. I dedicate this salad to her and her excellent cooking skills.

Get ready:

• 1 English cucumber, peeled and small diced
• 1/3 cup poha
• 1/3 cup unsalted peanuts coarsely ground
• 1 tsp sugar
• 2 green chillies
• 1tbsp grated ginger
• 1/2 lemon juice
• 1 tbsp coconut
• chopped cilantro

Go:

• Add the cucumber, poha, a little salt and mix well. let it sit for 15 mins so the poha will absorb all the water from the cucumber.
• Add the crushed peanuts, chilli, ginger, grated coconut, salt, sugar, lime juice, cilantro.
• Toss them all and serve.

Tastes good when served fresh.
