INSTRUCTIONS

Annette: "Decidedly spicy, yet cooling, this variation on fresh Indian
chutney complements poached prawns, grilled salmon or baked fish.  Made
with mint, it is excellent with lamb."  Peel cucumbers if they are not
the thin-skinned English or Japanese  varieties. Halve and seed them,
then chop fine. Sprinkle with salt;  transfer to a colander and let
drain 45 minutes. Transfer cucumbers to  nonreactive bowl. Add bell
pepper, shallot, garlic, pepper flakes,  lime juice and olive oil. Stir
to blend well. Taste; add vinegar if  mixture needs more punch. Add
sugar and salt to taste. Cover and let  stand in a cool place for one
hour before serving. Just before  serving, stir in minced cilantro (if
used).  Makes about 2+1/2 cups. Per serving (1/4 cup): 84 calories; 7.3

salt and acidic ingredients should be  prepared in bowls made of

plastic, aluminum or copper.  Recipe by: Annette Gooch Cole Publishing
