How to Make an Easy Cucumber Salad With Grated Coconut Seasoning

CUCUMBER SALAD



Cucumber Salad is a vegan food typical of the Aceh region known as "Cicah Boh Timon", served as a daily menu among the lower classes of society..

This simple salad made from cucumber is one of the simple and easy menus. Just imagine you don't need to prepare this dish by long cooking using the stove or other cooking utensils, with easy steps you will find the sensation of an extraordinary cucumber salad.


This salad, in contrast to the vegetable salad in which you eat cucumbers, if you usually prepare a salad without pureed herbs or natural spices such as shallots. This time you will find a delicious salad that is rich in spices with a crunchy and savory taste texture, obviously very different, right?. I always say this is the best food for creating just the taste of cucumber, which is sometimes served as a drink or in combination with other vegetable salads. However, when the basic ingredients of cucumber here are combined with spices without other supporting ingredients, it gives a very extraordinary impression in my opinion.

Shopping at the traditional market yesterday, made me pick some cucumbers, just to make this salad. I also started to prepare the ingredients needed to make this very salad cucumber easy namely, 2 cucumbers, 100 grams of grated coconut, now the coconut I use is still half old, because it will affect the taste of the salad. Then I prepared the other ingredients, 5 cloves of shallot, 2 sunti tamarind, 1 teaspoon salt and 10 cayenne pepper.

After preparing some of the ingredients needed, I continued to start processing the cucumber salad, here are the preparation steps.


Step 1

I prepared the cucumber, peeled and then washed the cucumber until it was completely clean. Then cut the cucumber into several pieces, then remove the middle part of the cucumber.


Step 2

Now, after removing the middle, I cut the cucumber lengthwise, do it until it's done. Now for the middle part, I don't use it, you can process it to be used as a drink.


Step 3

After the cucumber was cut, then I, started to grind the spices manually using a pestle, first chopping the onion, then I continued to grind the cayenne pepper by adding 1 tablespoon of salt.


Step 4

Then smooth all the ingredients, then I add the grated coconut, enter it slowly while being pulverized.Grind coarsely, don't be too slippery, because it will be more delicious if the seasoning is rough.


Step 5

Finally, mix the mashed spices with the chopped cucumber, stir until everything is evenly distributed.

Tara !!!
