HOW TO MAKE CUCUMBER SALAD
Such an easy recipe, as with most side dishes, made up of only a handful of ingredients:
- Cucumber — English or Lebanese cucumbers
- Avocado — we prefer Hass Avocados
- Feta cheese — or Goats cheese
- Red onion — substitute with green onions
CUCUMBERS
Rich in vitamin A, vitamin C, folic acid, fibre, magnesium and potassium, cucumbers have incredible health benefits! We use English cucumbers (or continental cucumbers) as they are slightly sweeter than other cucumbers with smaller seeds, making them easier to eat without de-seeding! Perfect for salads! You can also use Lebanese cucumbers if you wish.
To make your life easier, use a mandolin! A mandolin is perfect to help you keep your slices uniform. If you don’t have one don’t worry! You can slice them manually with no problems, just take your time and use a sharp knife.
