Ingredients needed 2 servings
Recipe
Cooking tips
- Removing the cucumber seeds helps prevent excess moisture release over time, preserving the crisp texture.
- Avoid mixing tomatoes and cucumbers too vigorously from the start—this can cause the tomato pulp to break down and become watery. First coat the cucumber with the sauce, then gently fold in the tomatoes.
- Pre-marinating leads to excess liquid buildup. It’s better to prepare and portion the ingredients ahead of time, then add the dressing only right before eating for maximum freshness and taste.
Recommended for
