CUCUMBER AND PINEAPPLE KERABU (Salad)
Another great light and refreshing kerabu (Salad) that offers the contrasts in flavour between the cucumber, onion and pineapple, with lime and a hint of chilli thrown in to liven things up. Try alternating ingredients to create your own kerabu.
Ingredients:
1 medium english cucumber, peeled and diced
1/2 pineapple, peeled and diced
1 red chilli, fresh, finely sliced, if you don't want it too hot remove the seeds. (we didn't find a red chile - so used a green one)
1 medium red onion, peeled and sliced
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp sugar (we would cut it back to 1 tbsp sugar - especially if you have a very sweet pineapple)
3 Tbsp lime juice
(We added half a red sweet pepper diced to add the red color in)
Method:
Combine all, mix and serve, or chill and serve later.
