About

This is the closest to original tabule salad. The dominant flavours are herby and green, and the taste of the olive oil should really shine through, so use the good stuff here.

Method

I like to keep the skin on the cucumber, and if you can get hold of a Lebanese one, you can chop the whole thing into dice (as small as you can). If you can only get a European long cucumber, it is best to halve it lengthways then scoop out the seeds with a teaspoon and discard before dicing, as otherwise they make the salad too wet.

Mix everything together as close to eating as possibl
