Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium-sized cucumbers, sliced
  • 3 ripe tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • Fresh herbs (such as dill or parsley) for garnish

Instructions

  1. Combine the sliced cucumbers, chopped tomatoes, and thinly sliced onion in a large mixing bowl.
  2. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, olive oil, sugar, salt, and black pepper until well blended.
  3. Pour the dressing over the veggies and toss gently to coat evenly.
  4. Let the mixture sit for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator to develop flavors.
  5. Transfer to a serving platter, garnish with fresh herbs, and serve chilled.

Notes

  • Use the freshest ingredients possible for maximum flavor.
  • Allow the salad to marinate longer for a more intense taste and better-melded flavors.
  • Avoid over-marinating to prevent the vegetables from becoming too soft.
  • Balance the dressing’s acidity and sweetness to avoid overpowering the natural flavors of the veggies.
  • Add feta cheese or olives for an additional twist.
