Begin by preparing the vegetables. Slice the English cucumber in half lengthwise and then into half-moon shapes about 1/4 inch thick.
Halve the cherry tomatoes. If they're particularly large, quarter them.
Seed and dice the red bell pepper into small pieces.
Chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces, discarding any tough stem parts.
Thinly slice the red onion and radishes.
Roughly chop the fresh parsley and mint.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cucumber, tomatoes, bell pepper, lettuce, red onion, radishes, parsley, and mint.
Prepare the dressing in a small bowl or jar by whisking together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, sumac, sea salt, and black pepper.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, with more salt, pepper, or lemon juice as preferred.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to an hour if you prefer the flavors to meld before serving.
