*Persian Cucumber Salad*
Nakes 4 servings Made this the other night for the missionary sisters. We had it with turkey burgers. It was really good. Simple and fresh. I realized afterwards that I had forgotten the cheese on top. It's really good! 450g chopped English Cucumber (2 1/2 cups) 300g quarterd cherry tomatoes (1 1/2 cups) 1 small red onion, peeled and finely chopped 2 tsp finely chopped fresh mint the juice of one lemon (about 2 1/2 TBS) 1 TBS extra virgin olive oil fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste 4 TBS crumbled feta cheese to sprinkle over top (optional) Combine everything but the cheese in a bowl. Toss to combine. Cover and chill for at least an hour prior to serving. Sprinkle the cheese on top when you are ready to serve. |
