This Nepali Cucumber Salad was really yummy and crunchy with sesame seeds.Nepal is another Asian country which has different culture and traditions.It’s food suggestions are flavourful and delicious.
I have never tried or tasted any Nepali food before. Anyway the event ‘Flavours of Nepal’ made me curious to search for Nepali cuisine. I found this Cucumber Salad is interesting & tried it. Really it was delicious.
