** Peel of the skin of one medium sized cucumber and chop them into small pieces too and add them to the bowl with tomatoes. 

** Now clean and chop about 2 cups of cabbage also into similar sized pieces and add into the bowl. 

** Add 4-5 green chillies chopped fine, 3 tablespoon of beaten curds and salt to taste. Add in a pinch of hing powder and mix all ingredients well. 

** Add in a handful of freshly chopped coriander leaves and mix well, I did not add as it was not fresh.
