Begin by thoroughly washing the mixed salad greens and allowing them to drain completely. Place them in a large salad bowl.
Rinse the cucumber under cold water, peel if desired, and slice it thinly into rounds or half-moons. Add the cucumber slices to the salad bowl with the greens.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the salad bowl.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh from the skin. Cut the avocado into small cubes and gently mix them into the salad.
Finely chop the fresh dill and sprinkle it over the salad mixture.
In a small bowl, prepare the dressing by combining the lemon juice, olive oil, soy sauce, honey, black pepper, and sea salt. Whisk the ingredients together until the honey is dissolved and the dressing is well emulsified.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to ensure all ingredients are well coated.
Just before serving, add the egg roe over the top of the salad to prevent it from getting crushed during mixing.
Serve immediately as a refreshing starter or side salad.
