Trying VIRAL TikTok cucumber salad

Ingredients

• 1 large English Seedless Cucumber (thinly sliced with mandolin)
• 0.25 medium Red Onion (thinly sliced with mandolin)
• 100 g Smoked Salmon (thinly sliced with mandolin or sharp knife)
• 1 ripe Avocado (sliced just before serving)
• 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice (freshly squeezed)
• 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil (high quality, drizzle over salad)
• 1 pinch Salt (to taste)
• 1 pinch Black Pepper (freshly ground)
• 1 tablespoon Fresh Dill (chopped, optional garnish)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Mandolin

   Set the mandolin to its thinnest setting, secure the safety guard, and place a clean cutting board underneath.

   Time: PT1M

2. Slice the Cucumber

   Run the English seedless cucumber over the mandolin, creating ultra‑thin ribbons. Transfer to a bowl of ice water to keep them crisp.

   Time: PT2M

3. Slice the Red Onion

   Using the same mandolin setting, slice the red onion very thinly. Rinse briefly in cold water to mellow the bite, then pat dry.

   Time: PT2M

4. Slice the Smoked Salmon

   Lay the smoked salmon flat and run it through the mandolin (or use a sharp knife) to obtain delicate ribbons.

   Time: PT2M

5. Prepare the Avocado

   Halve the avocado, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and slice into thin wedges. Sprinkle with a tiny pinch of lemon juice to prevent browning.

   Time: PT2M

6. Assemble the Salad

   Pat the cucumber ribbons dry, then arrange them on the serving plate. Layer the red onion, smoked salmon, and avocado slices on top. Drizzle lemon juice and olive oil, then season with salt and black pepper. Garnish with fresh dill if desired.

   Time: PT5M
