Begin by peeling the pomelo. Remove the thick outer rind and then carefully separate the segments. Peel the membrane off each segment to reveal the juicy flesh. Tear the flesh into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and gently scoop out the flesh. Chop the avocado into cubes and add them to the bowl with the pomelo.
Peel the cucumber, if desired, and cut it into thin slices. Add the cucumber slices to the salad bowl.
Dice the red bell pepper into small cubes and add them to the bowl with the rest of the vegetables.
Chop the fresh mint leaves and cilantro finely, then sprinkle over the salad ingredients.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, fish sauce, erythritol, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss everything together until well coated.
Let the salad sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld, then serve immediately for a refreshing keto treat.
