Yogurt, Cucumber & Mint Salad

As refreshing as a cold shower on a blistering-hot day, this salad has the power to improve the character of any dish it accompanies. My favourite use for this salad is as a side dish to kebbeh or Freekeh with Lamb & Rhubarb, or atop cold spaghetti. It’s equally lovely eaten with warm Arabic bread, as people do in the Middle East.
