Combine the Vegetables:
In a large bowl, combine the sliced cucumbers, chopped eggs, grated carrots, and 80g cooked corn.
Chop some green onions and parsley and add them to the bowl.
Prepare the Dressing:
In a small bowl, mix 3-4 tablespoons of thick yogurt with 1 tablespoon of mustard until well combined.
