Hi Nidhi, I have made this recipe multiple times and it’s fantastic! I want to make it for my family but my mom doesn’t react well to cucumbers… would you have any suggestions for substitutions?
Thanks!
Thanks a lot for your feedback. So happy that you liked it. Cucumber is just for texture, so you can either omit it or replace it with something with a mild flavor like radish, daikon, jicama, carrots.
