Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 medium radishes
- 1 medium cucumber
- 0.5 small red onion
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Start by washing and trimming the radishes. Cut them into thin slices using a mandoline or a sharp knife, and place them into a large salad bowl.
Peel the cucumber if desired, slice it in half lengthwise, and remove the seeds with a spoon. Then, slice the cucumber into thin half-moons and add to the salad bowl.
Finely dice the half red onion and add it to the bowl with the radishes and cucumber.
Chop the fresh dill and parsley finely. Add these herbs to the salad for freshness and flavor.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients in the bowl and mix well to coat all vegetables evenly.
Taste the salad and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or lemon juice to suit your preference.
Serve chilled or at room temperature. This salad can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
