Kachumber Salad/Mix Veg Salad/ Instant Pickle

This kachumber salad is a mix of several veggies chopped into thin slices or Julienne. This tangy-spicy yet refreshing salad goes very well with vegetarian or non-veg main course dishes, especially dals or chicken and fish tikka.
This is the easiest-to-make salad or instant pickle that is prepared by adding lemon juice, red chilly powder,  salt, and little oil to the thinly chopped veggies
The authentic taste comes when the vegetables are mixed with other ingredients and everything is combined with hands crushing a little. That is why this salad is called kachumber salad. This process will help to extract all the juices and then mixing with each other making it so yummy
