Salaata

(To serve with Afghan Hotpot)

3 small continental cucumbers (or half a regular)

3 tomatoes

3-4 spring onions

Half a bunch of fresh coriander, trimmed

Handful fresh mint, trimmed

1 small regular onion

2 small, hot green chillies (optional, of course)

Salt

Juice of 1-2 lemons

Just chop all the ingredients together: we're talking bigger than a salsa here but much smaller than a regular chunk.

Sprinkle with salt and drizzle with lemon, and then cover and pop it in the fridge for about 30 minutes (to let the flavours mingle and get to know each other).
