Trim the ends from the cucumber. Peel it
lengthways but leave some of the skin on, to make the salad look more
attractive. Cut it in thin slices and lay them out on a large plate.
Sprinkle with a little salt and leave for 15 minutes. Rinse well and
dry. Mix the vinegar, sugar a pinch of salt together. Arrange all the
vegetable in a bowl and pour over the vinegar, sugar and salt mixture.
Cover the salad and chill before serving.
Serves 6
A refreshing salad, Atjar Ketimum, which
can be made ahead; it improves if well chilled before serving. Use firm,
slightly under-ripe tomatoes so the flesh does not collapse when cut
into dice.
