Cooking cucumber does not take a lot of time. This spicy cucumber curry goes very well with plain white rice.

Ingredients:

• 1 whole cucumber, peeled and cut into small pieces
• 3 – 4 tsps curry powder or 2 tsps cayenne pepper powder
• a pinch of turmeric powder (optional)
• 2 tsps salt
• 1 tbsp vegetable oil

Preheat the oil. Add the cucumber peeled and cut into small pieces and the turmeric (if you use it). Cook covered on medium heat, and check every 1-2 minutes.

When it starts soften add the salt and cook covered further. Keep it checking.

When after the cucumber is cooked well add the curry powder and mix well and cook for another 2 to 3 min. The curry powder will absorb all the water and the curry should come together as a mass.

When ready remove from heat and serve with rice.
