Equipment
- Mandolin
Ingredients
- 1 Cucumber
- 1 red onion
- 2 large carrots
- 1 bulb of fennel
- a few radishes
- 1 tbsp of white wine vinegar
- 2 tbsp Extra-virgin olive oil
- Small bunch of fresh dill About 4 tbsp when chopped
- 1 tsp White sugar
Instructions
- Prepare your vegetables. Peel your carrots (if you want), onions and any bits of the other veg. Also, seed your cucumber. Do this by slicing the cucumber in half length wise, and then use a spoon to scoop out the seeds in the centre.
- If you have a mandolin, set it on a thin setting and slice up the carrots, fennel, onion and radishes. You can also do this for cucumber, or chop by hand. If you don't have a mandolin, use a good sharp knife and slice your veg very thinly. Place all chopped vegetables into a bowl.
- Chop the dill, stalks and all, toss all but about 2 tbsp of this into the bowl.
- Mix the oil, vinegar sugar with a bit of salt and pepper. Wisk and toss with the vegetables. Then set in your fridge for at least 30min.
- To serve, give a stir and then sprinkle over the remaining dill. Perfect with a BBQ!
