Light, zesty and totally refreshing, this cucumber
How to Make It
Step 1
Slice the cucumber into thin discs – roughly ¼ cm wide. Add the cucumber discs to a mixing bowl along with the salt and stir well to combine. Set aside for 15 minutes allowing the cucumber to release any excess liquid.
Step 2
Whilst the cucumber is resting, finely slice the scallions and roughly chop the dill. Add the crème fraiche, mayonnaise, lemon juice, lemon zest, scallions, dill and black pepper to a mixing bowl. Stir well to combine.
Step 3
Drain any excess water from the sliced cucumber and blot with kitchen paper to absorb any further moisture and the salt.
Step 4
Spoon the creamy dressing over the cucumber discs and stir well to coat. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
