Go to a meal at any Indian home and there will be a salad like this on the table. The dinner table is not dressed without this offering of freshness and light relief. You can add any variations, but the iconic ingredients are the onions, tomato and cucumber. I think it is from cucumber that this dish derives its name, but there is no evidence for this. Sounds like too much of a mad coincidence not to be true if you ask me.
