A wonderful simple side dish to go with any Indian cuisine. I used the 1/2 teaspoon of cumin to be "safe" but I think next time I'll increase it a little. A little bit of salt wouldn't hurt either. This was the only recourse we had against the most spicy burger we've ever eaten - we served it with our Valley of Spices Burger and it was definitely a good match. Thanks for the great idea! We'll be using this one again.

WONDERFUL! A very refreshing salad that I served to accompany Chicken Vindaloo #24139-a perfect pairing! I did not use the sugar and I used 1/2 tsp. cumin, 1 T. mint, and a dash of celery salt. The mint was a delightful addition. Thank you so much for sharing this great recipe!!!

Wonderful! I love the blend of flavours in this. I have never used or even tasted cumin before this so I was a bit worried. It turned out to be GREAT. I had only one cucumber so I adjusted the amounts accordingly. I used a field fresh cucumber and didn't de-seed it as they are my favourite part. I enjoyed this thoroughly! Thanks for posting!

Fabulous and fresh cucumber salad. Great for the summertime - goes great with anything! Loved the addition of the cumin - I have had a similar salad that didn't have that. Of course, I mis-read the directions and added too much cumin, but it was still WONDERFUL. Thank you for another great side dish, Parsley!! ZWT3.
