Cracked black pepper, Two spoons of red chopped onions, Turmeric, Salt, One English cucumber, 1 Lime,

Salt to taste, 1/2 cup yogurt 
Method 
Boil the moong dal with ginger, garlic, black pepper, coriander and red onion.  Make sure dal does not overcook.  The consistency should be like rice.  Strain and rough stir in blender. Make ladoos and set aside.  
Slice cucumber lengthwise.  Cut like spaghetti. (you can also julienne the cucumber).  Soak in salt and lime juice until cucumber wilts.  Whisk the yogurt.  Place a little yogurt in a martini glass.  Place one ladoo and top it with cucumber spaghetti.  Place one ladoo on the plate
