Fresh Summer Salad (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Fresh Vegetables
01 -
4 mini or Persian cucumbers
02 -
8 fresh radishes (about one bunch)
03 -
2 green onions, thinly sliced
04 -
1 tablespoon fresh dill, roughly chopped
→ Dressing
05 -
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
06 -
1½ tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from half a lemon)
07 -
Kosher salt, to taste
08 -
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
# Instructions:
01 -
Using a sharp knife or mandoline slicer, cut the radishes and cucumbers into thin, even slices. A mandoline works wonderfully here since it creates perfectly uniform slices and speeds up the process significantly.
02 -
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, fresh lemon juice, salt, and pepper until well combined.
03 -
Add the sliced cucumbers, radishes, green onions, and fresh dill to a medium bowl. Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss gently to coat everything evenly.
04 -
Transfer your beautiful salad to a serving bowl and give it a final sprinkle of salt and pepper if desired. Serve immediately while everything is crisp and fresh.
# Notes:
01 -
This refreshing salad is absolutely perfect for hot summer days when you want something light and cooling.
02 -
If you're using a mandoline, consider getting cut-proof gloves for safety since these slicers are incredibly sharp.
