A great salad that I generally have at every lunch on a hunt. Ingredients include plum tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, bell pepper, a chili pepper and you could add avocado if available and you were so inclined.

For the dressing, a diced garlic clove or two, balsamic vinegar and olive oil.

Peel the cucumbers, dice everything else and add the dressing. It's outstanding.

That sounds really good. Will try it, and thank you.

REAL KACHUMBER is just tomatoes and onions, lime juice and salt!

Modern chefs seem to add whatever they wish to it.

We enjoy it with all rice dishes, like curries, biryanis and stews.

But it's better with balsamic vinegar and olive oil. ?

Your choice.

Original does not include vinegar and oil.

So is this supposed to be kind of a puréed or chopped up thing (kind of like salsa) or is it more like chunks like fruit salad?

CR Butler,

It's chopped and sliced, not pureed.
