    How to Make this Creamy Cucumber Pasta Salad:

    This is such an easy recipe, y’all. Seriously. Yes to Summer recipes that don’t require hardly any effort!

    1. First, begin by cooking your pasta according to the box instructions! Make sure to salt your water and cook the pasta until al dente. Once it’s done, let it cool! If desired, rinse cold water over top to stop the cooking and speed up the cooling process.

    Sprinkle pepper and toss to coat evenly.

    2. While the pasta is cooling off, slice up your cucumber! Slice it in half lengthwise and then slice very thin slices of cucumber.

    3. Do the same thing with the red onion! Thin slices go a long way here, folks! While it’s not required, soaking the onions in cold water for a few minutes takes just a little bit of bite out of them.  .

    4. Next, mix together the delicious Greek yogurt dill dressing! Combine the Greek yogurt with the dill, vinegar, salt (i added the pink salt) and pepper. Mix until deliciously thick and creamy. Set this aside.

    Looking for something more adventurous than your usual Kachumber salad? Try this tasty Crunchy Pickled Kachumber Salad, a crunchy, squeaky pickle salad that would be amazing alongside a super fatty main dish, like this Chicken Biryani. But don’t worry, it’s not one briny mouthful, there are a lot of different textures going on between the crisp onions, crunchy pickles, red cabbage and juicy carrots.

    Crunchy Pickled Kachumber Salad Recipe

    I like to experiment with creating no-cook dishes that can be easily thrown together at the last minute. I especially enjoy playing with the salads I’ve learned and putting a new spin on them, using whatever ingredients I have on hand to create something entirely new.

    This salad happened during one of my kitchen experiments. Things I really love in spring: 

    1. Super crisp, crunchy salads
    2. Juicy Colorful Veggies

    So clearly it make sense to combine these two faves into one, right?

    Crunchy Pickled Kachumber Salad

    I started with a simple family recipe for a Kachumbar salad. But for a change, I used the homemade pickled Cucumber, onion and baby carrots, vinegar, salt for this recipe. then tweaked the dressing and added some stuff I found in the fridge—red radishes and half a red cabbage. The result is a delightfully flavorful salad—cold, crunchy, pickled and easy to throw together at a moment’s notice. I call it my Crunchy Pickled Kachumber Salad.

    Some Useful Tips

    • If you like pickle vegetables, you’re going to love this salad. You can use store bought pickles or make your own by following my recipe.
    • Usually, we tend to favor pickles that are bright with acid and low on sugar; anything labeled “half-sour” usually fits the bill. If using sweeter pickles, add a bit more vinegar and black salt. And honestly, you can use whatever pickles you want in this recipe.
    • Organic cucumbers are smaller and thinner than non organic cucumbers.  They are smaller and slightly sweeter than the non-organic variety, and they have less seeds. Organic cucumbers are great for snacking. They have a wonderful mineral flavor to them. Unfortunately some grocery stores only carry Organic cucumbers seasonally, and some don’t carry them at all.
    • If you can’t find them, substitute Non-organic cucumbers—those are the long thin ones wrapped tightly in plastic. Avoid using regular fat cucumbers, as they are coated with wax and prone to bitterness.

    This is my favourite salad to serve with my Restaurant Style Lahori Mutton Karahi recipe. It just works so well with Tawa fish and the sweetness of the Apricot Chutney. I highly recommend serving this up with some extra Cucumber on the side.

    The heat in this hot and sour noodles comes from red pepper flakes and hot pepper sauce. The noodles has to be on the hotter side. The sourness comes from adding vinegar right at the end. If you add the vinegar in the beginning or towards the middle, the vinegar will evaporate during cooking. Which is why we add the vinegar right at the end.

    Chicken: Cut chicken breast into 1-inch cubes, mix with ginger garlic paste, egg white, Cornflour, soy sauce, chili sauce, vinegar, red pepper and salt to taste.  You can cook right away or leave to marinate for 30 minutes to blend flavors.

    Hot and Sour Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk all the sauce ingredients, 1/2 cup water, 1/2 cup tomato ketchup, 2 tablespoon hot pepper Sauce, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 tablespoon Vinegar, salt and Pepper to taste, chili flakes. Set aside.
    Egg Noodles: Cook the egg noodles in boiling water, add a little salt, cook for 5-7 minutes, then strain.

Take it from the oil. It‘s important not to overcook the chicken, otherwise, the coating will be slightly burned, cook it only until it changes its color to golden brown.

    4. Stir Fry Vegetables: Add onion, capsicum, tomato and cook for 1-2 minutes, until lightly tender and browned, but still a little crunchy (they should not be completely cooked).
    5. Add Fried Chicken: Add the fried chicken pieces back to the pan, and the tomato ketchup and vinegar. Stir well.
