This is a Traditional Indian Dish, made mostly in the Coastal areas of Maharashtra, Goa and Karnataka .
The cake is moist, soft and delightful. The taste of the refreshing squash and the crunch of the nuts just blended with other ingredients and made it an enjoyable affair.The variety of cucumbers actually used to make this is seasonal and not found everywhere in India. So, you can make them with the light green ones we use for salads.Serve when totally cooled without any garnishing or sauces to enjoy the authentic taste of this Cucumber Cake .
Ingredients:-
3 Cups Grated Cucumber( do not drain its water, that lends more taste, will help moisten the cake and prevent it from becoming dry)
2 Cups of semolina /Rawa/Suji
2 Cups of Jaggery ( now depending on the sweetness of the jaggery , do reduce or increase the amount)
2 Cups Freshly Grated Coconut
1 Tbsp Cardamom Powder
some chopped nuts
1/4 tsp Salt
1/2 cup of pure Ghee
