THAI CUCUMBER AND PINEAPPLE SALAD

Recently i got a Thai vegetarian cook book from a friend and i saw many interesting Thai recipes in that book and i noted down few interesting recipes  which i will post one by one. This Pineapple and cucumber salad which i tried 2 days back turned out totally awesome.I can say it is a perfect and refreshing salad and a must try salad at home for this summer.

INGREDIENTS: [SERVES 3-4]

PINEAPPLE (CUBED)	1 CUP
CUCUMBER	1
RED CHILLI FLAKES	TO TASTE
SOYA SAUCE	1/2 TSP
ROASTED PEANUTS	1/4 CUP

I didn’t make any step wise pictures as i was very easy to make and no cooking is involved.
METHOD:

• Cube the pineapple and cucumber.( i used the Japanese cucumber)
• If using the Indian cucumber, scoop out the seeds if you don’t like and peel off the skin too.
• In a wide bowl, combine the pineapple, cucumber and add the soya sauce and red chilli flakes.
• Crush the roasted peanuts in a mixer coarsely and add to the salad.
• Mix well. since the peanuts i used the salted roasted peanuts i didn’t add salt.
• Serve immediately.  If serving later, add the peanuts before serving.
