Kerkatige (Cucumber) Saasmi

This one is straight from my mother.

You will need:
Kerkattige -1 (Salad Cucumber)
Coconut - 1/2 dessicated coconut
Red Chilies - 4-6
Mustard Seeds -1 1/2 tsp
Tamarind/Curds - 1/2 lemon size/1/2 cup
Turmeric -1 pinch
Salt to taste
Seasoning

Sasmi Masala: Grind Grated Coconut + Red Chilies + mustard seeds + Turmeric + Tamarind (If using Tamarind don't use curds)

Cut Kerkattige into small pieces. 
Add Salt and the Masala. 
Add Seasoning (Mustard Seeds, Uddina bele, red chilies and curry leaves).
The Saasmi is ready to be served with Rice. 
It is a good accompaniment for Rice in the Summers.
