Ingredients
- 2 midi cucumber, cut into 0.5cm cubes

- 1 medium carrot, scrubbed and coarsely grated
- 1½ tbsp finely chopped red onion (about 1/2 small onion)
- 2 tsp fine salt

- 3 tbsp lime juice
- 2 clove/s garlic
- 1 tbsp finely grated fresh ginger (or ginger paste)
- 3 tbsp Greek-style natural yogurt, to serve

Method
Put the cucumbers, tomatoes, carrot and onion in a mixing bowl. Add 1 tsp salt and ½ tsp ground cumin; set aside.
Put the remaining 1 tsp cumin in a small food processor with the remaining ingredients, except the yogurt and Bombay mix. Add the remaining 1 tsp salt and blend to a smooth green purée. Add 2 tbsp cold water if needed to help blend.
