Notes
- You can grate the cucumber with the peel on provided peel is tender and not waxed.
- Remove the seeds of cucumber if they are hard. Otherwise no need to remove them.
- Do not squeeze the cucumber and use with its water.
- If after mixing everything, mixture is still dry, you can add bit of water. And if otherwise the mixture seems to be too much wet, you can add bit of semolina.
- Wet your fingers at the time of dropping and spreading the mixture on tawa. This way the mixture will not stick to your fingers.
