Cucumber Sambal

Cultural Context

Traditionally served with grilled meats or as part of a braai, this dish balances the coolness of cucumbers with the heat of chilies and the tanginess of vinegar. Its modern variations often include different herbs or spices, making it a versatile accompaniment enjoyed by many.
