How to Prepare

Wash and peel the cucumbers if desired. Dice them into small, bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Wash the tomatoes and cut them into small wedges or cubes. Add them to the bowl with cucumbers.
Finely chop the red onions and add them to the bowl.
Chop the fresh coriander leaves and sprinkle them over the vegetables.
In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and chaat masala (if using).
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss everything together to coat evenly.
Let the salad sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve chilled or at room temperature as a refreshing side dish.
