Method:

1. In a mixing bowl add the hung curd, capsicum, onion, garlic, chillies, salt and mix.

2. Trim the ends of the cucumber.

3. Cut them into about 1- 1 ½ inch thick slices crosswise.

4. Scoop out the seeds from the centre of each slice using a melon baller or a sharp knife or an apple corer, without cutting through to the bottom.

5. Spoon the dahi mixture into the cucumber cavities as required.

6. Garnish with herbs of choice and cherry tomato halves.
Serve as it is or chilled.

Note:
To completely drain whey from dahi (to make hung curd), tie it in a kitchen towel/muslin cloth placed on a colander for about an hour. If the weather is too hot place this in the refrigerator to avoid it from getting sour.
