Ingredients


1/3 cup Coconut flakes, unsweetened
1/3 cup Cilantro (coriander) (chopped)
3 cucumber(s) Cucumber (sliced)
1/4 tsp Cumin seeds
1 tsp Granulated sugar
2 tbsp Lemon juice
1/2 tsp Mustard seeds (black)
1/2 cup Peanuts (toasted)
2 pepper(s) Red chili pepper (also chile or chilli) (stemmed and minced)
1/2 tsp Sea Salt
1 tbsp Sunflower oil (or ghee, clarified butter)

Instructions


Halve the cucumbers lengthwise, scrape out the seeds, and chop into desired size. Just before you are ready to serve, transfer to a mixing bowl and toss gently with hot pepper, peanuts, coconut, lemon juice, and sugar.

Heat the sunflower oil on medium heat in a small skillet. When hot stir in the mustard seeds. They are going to sputter and spit a bit, and when this starts to happen, add the cumin seeds. Heat for 15-30 seconds, just long enough to toast the spices. Cover with a lid if needed. Remove from heat, stir in the salt, and immediately stir this into the salad.

Move to a serving bowl and top with the cilantro.
