Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized Tomatoes
- 2 medium-sized Cucumber
- 1 small Red onion
- 1 bunch (approximately 1 cup chopped) Parsley
- 0.25 cup, finely chopped Mint leaves
- 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Sumac (optional)
Instructions
Wash all the vegetables and herbs thoroughly. Pat them dry using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Dice the tomatoes and cucumbers into small, even-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Finely chop the red onion and add it to the bowl with the tomatoes and cucumbers.
Remove any tough stems from the parsley and mint leaves. Finely chop the parsley and mint, then add them to the mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and sumac (if using) to make the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the chopped vegetables and herbs. Toss everything gently until the salad is evenly coated with the dressing.
Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice as needed.
Serve immediately or let the salad sit for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve as a side dish with grilled meats, pita bread, or your favorite Middle Eastern dishes.
