Ingredients Needed
- 500 grams (1 lb) Strawberries
- 1 English Cucumber
- ½ Red Onion
- ¼ cup (15g) Parsley
- ¼ cup (15g) Mint
- ⅓ cup (50g) Feta Cheese
Dressing:
- 2 teaspoons Olive Oil
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- Salt & Pepper to taste
How To Make Strawberry Cucumber Salad
- Prepare the Salad: In a large salad bowl, add chopped strawberries, cucumber, red onion, and fresh herbs.
- Make the Dressing: Whisk together olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
- Toss the Salad: Pour the dressing over the chopped veggies and toss everything well to combine.
- Add Feta: Stir in half of the crumbled feta cheese and mix everything gently.
- Serve: Sprinkle the remaining feta on top of the salad just before serving.
Recipe Tips
- Use ripe strawberries: Make sure your strawberries are sweet and ripe for the best flavor. Overripe berries can be mushy and not as fresh-tasting.
- Slice cucumber thinly: Slice the cucumber thinly to allow the flavors to blend better and make it easier to eat.
- Chill the salad: For an extra refreshing taste, chill the salad in the fridge for about 10-15 minutes before serving.
- Add feta last: Sprinkle the feta on top at the end to keep it crumbly and prevent it from dissolving into the salad.
How To Store Leftovers?
Let any leftover salad cool to room temperature before placing it in an airtight container. Store it in the fridge for up to 2 days.
