Step 1

Wash all vegetables thoroughly under running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Step 2

Peel the cucumber if desired, then finely chop it into small cubes. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

Dice the tomatoes into small pieces, ensuring you remove the seeds for less moisture. Add them to the bowl with the cucumber.

Roughly chop the fresh cilantro and stir it into the vegetable mixture.

Step 6

In a small bowl, prepare the dressing by mixing lemon juice, salt, black pepper, chaat masala, and olive oil.

Step 7

Pour the dressing over the chopped vegetables and toss everything gently to combine but thoroughly coat all ingredients.

Step 8

Taste the salad and adjust seasoning if needed with more salt, pepper, or chaat masala according to your preference.

Step 9

Refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to let the flavors meld together, or serve immediately for a fresh crunch.

Step 10

Garnish with additional cilantro if desired before serving.
