## Notes

* firstly, make sure to squeeze the juice of cucumber well and use that juice for grinding.

* also, if you like savoury cucumber idli, then you can add green chilli, ginger skipping jaggery.

* additionally, if you do not have access to banana leaf, then you can steam in idli stand.

* finally, **cucumber idli** / **cucumber sihi kadubu** tastes great when prepared in summer as cucumber acts as a body coolant.
