Cauliflower, Corn, and Cucumber Salad Recipe

Arleena
This cauliflower, tomato, and cucumber salad, served cold, is absolutely amazing. It’s a treat on hot days when you all you can think about is eating things that are nice and cold.
Prep Time 20 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 11 oz Cauliflower
  • 1 Cucumber
  • 1 Tomato
  • 1/4 Onion
  • 1 cup Yogurt
  • 1 clove Garlic
  • 1 Lemon
  • 1 unit
  • 1 small can Corn
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions
 

  • Wash the cauliflower, remove any dark parts, and cut into fairly small pieces. Cook for just 2–3 minutes in a pan of boiling water. Then drain, removing as much water as possible. Let cool.
  • Wash and cut the cucumber and tomato into medium dice. Chop up the onion and mince the garlic.
  • In a salad bowl, mix the cauliflower, diced cucumber and tomato, and chopped onion.
  • In another bowl, mix the plain unsweetened yogurt with the garlic, and season with a little salt and a generous squirt of lemon juice. Stir well and add this dressing to the salad. Mix in gently and it's ready.

Notes

  • Ideally, this salad should be served cold, so chill it in the fridge before serving. The longer you chill it, the better it will be.
  • Since the cauliflower is cut into very small pieces, 3 minutes in boiling water is all it takes to cook it al dente, i.e., keeping it a little crunchy. You don’t want it to be soft.
