27g
1 lemon
60g
1 dash salt
0.40g

1/10g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Vegetables:
- Cucumber: Wash the cucumber thoroughly. Peel if desired. Slice it lengthwise and then chop into bite-sized pieces.
- Tomatoes: Wash the tomatoes, remove the cores, and cut them into small wedges or chunks.
- Avocados: Halve the avocados, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh out. Chop the avocado into similar-sized pieces as the cucumber and tomatoes.
- Onion: Peel the onion and finely chop it.
2. Combine the Vegetables:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped cucumber, tomatoes, avocado, and onion. Gently mix to distribute the ingredients evenly.
3. Prepare the Dressing:
- Coriander Leaves: Finely chop the coriander leaves.
- Lemon: Cut the lemon in half and juice it. Make sure to remove any seeds.
- In a small bowl or a jar with a lid, combine the lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, chopped coriander leaves, a dash of salt, and a dash of black pepper. Mix or shake well until the dressing is thoroughly combined.
4. Dress the Salad:
- Pour the prepared dressing over the mixed vegetables. Gently toss the salad to ensure all ingredients are coated with the dressing.
5. Serve:
- Transfer the salad to a serving bowl if desired. Serve immediately for the freshest taste.

Tips:

- Make sure to use ripe avocados for the best texture and flavor.

- For added flavor, you can allow the salad to sit for a few minutes before serving to let the ingredients marinate in the dressing.

- Add a pinch of red chili flakes for a bit of extra heat if desired.

- You can also add a handful of crumbled feta cheese for added richness and taste.

- To keep the avocado from browning, you can cut and add it just before serving.
