Rinse the radishes and cherry tomatoes thoroughly under cold running water.
Slice the radishes into thin rounds using a sharp knife or mandoline slicer for even cuts. Place them into a large salad bowl.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the bowl with the radishes.
Peel the red onion and slice it into thin rings or half-moons. Add the slices to the salad bowl.
Gently rinse and dry the fresh mint leaves. Roughly chop them or leave them whole based on your preference, and mix them into the salad.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until well combined to make the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients in the bowl. Toss everything gently using salad tongs or clean hands until evenly coated.
Adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt or lemon juice to taste.
Serve the salad immediately or chill it in the refrigerator for 10β15 minutes before serving for a more refreshing experience.
