This side salad is an excellent choice with spicy dhal & rice dishes, it has a cooling affect from the yogurt and a freshness from the tomato & cucumber.

​

For beefsteak tomato type, slice in the similar way to the cucumber until you have roughly the same amount of  tomato as the cucumber and add to the bowl.
