Cucumber and Sweet-Onion Salad


Ingredients

  • 3 English cucumbers, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced on the diagonal
  • 1 medium sweet onion, such as Vidalia, halved and thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup fresh dill, coarsely chopped
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
  • Coarse salt and ground pepper

Method

In a large bowl, toss together cucumbers, onion, dill, oil, lemon juice, and vinegar; season with salt and pepper.
*For a creamier version of this, substitute mayonnaise for the lemon-juice...the vinegar and mayonnaise together are delicious!*

For a creamier version of this, substitute mayonaise for the lemon-juice...the vinegar and mayonaise together are delicious! A perfect dish to supplement summer hamburgers and sweet corn.
