How to Prepare

Wash and peel the cucumbers if desired. Slice them thinly into rounds or half-moons.
Finely chop the fresh mint leaves.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced cucumbers, chopped mint, and thinly sliced red onion.
In a small bowl, whisk together yogurt, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and a pinch of chaat masala (if using).
Pour the dressing over the cucumber mixture and toss gently to coat evenly.
Garnish with a few whole mint leaves and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld.
Serve chilled as a refreshing side dish.
