Brown cucumber raitha (Kakadi Koroda)

Here is a recipe shared by Ashwini Naik, the brown cucumber which I found very fascinating in Nainital Market. 

Brown skinned cucumbers? Have you seen it? Does it tastes same like ordinary green one? Do you make any dish out of it?

The brown cucumber can be used to make typical Vidarbha style Kakadi Koroda.

Peel n grate them.Make a tadaka of rai,curry leaves green chilly and hing.Add haldi powder and grated cucumber.Add salt cover and let it cook for a few minutes.Now mix little besan with dahi and pour over cooked cucumber.Mix well so that no lumps are formed.Cover and cook for a few minutes.Serve hot with jawar roti or rice.If you like raw oil then pour  a bit of ground nut oil on each serving like we take on malagapodi.
