uJUMP TO RECIPE

For the creamiest texture, always use thick hung curd or well-drained Greek yogurt. If the curd tastes too sour, balance it with a pinch of sugar. Slice the cucumber, onion, and tomatoes evenly to ensure a smooth bite every time. Chilling the salad for 30 minutes before serving helps the flavors blend beautifully. Don’t skip the olive oil—it enhances taste and adds a silky finish.
