Ingredients

Servings

For the salad:

  • 2 English cucumber peeled and thinly sliced, large
  • 2 tbsp red onion chopped

For the dressing:

  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 tbsp lime juice or more, to taste
  • 1 pinch salt
  • chili flakes to taste
  • 1 pinch lemon zest
  • 1 pinch Maggi stock cube optional (and the norm in Sierra Leone)
  • 3/4 tsp oregano dried

Instructions

  1. Make the dressing by mixing the lime, salt, chilli, red onion, lemon zest and maggi together in a small bowl.
  2. Place the sliced cucumber in a large bowl and then pour in the dressing.
  3. Gently mix to coat and adjust seasonings, to taste.
  4. Serve immediately, or cover, refrigerate and allow to marinate for a couple of hours.

Notes

  • Feel free to add more or less of what you want. Maggi cubes are stock cubes used in Africa that you can get in ethnic food stores.
