- 1 teaspoon salt or to taste
- ½ teaspoon Chaat Masala
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper powder

Notes
- You can add radish, cherry tomato, pomegranate, and apples too.
- Make sure to finely chop all the ingredients of the same size.
- It is best to make a fresh batch of kachumber salad as the vegetables release their juices after 1 hour of adding salt. Hence, the whole salad becomes non-crunchy and watery.
- if you want to make a nut-free kachumber salad, skip adding peanuts. It is an optional ingredient.
