Ingredients

• 2 large Cucumber
• 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
• 0.5 small Red onion
• 3 tablespoons White vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and pat them dry. Using a sharp knife or a mandoline, slice the cucumbers into thin rounds (about 1/8-inch thick).

Step 2

Finely chop the fresh dill and set it aside.

Step 3

Peel and slice the red onion into very thin half-moons.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the white vinegar, olive oil, sugar, salt, and black pepper until the sugar is dissolved and the dressing is well combined.

Step 5

Add the sliced cucumbers, red onion, and chopped dill to the bowl with the dressing. Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated.

Step 6

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. For the best taste, refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Step 7

Before serving, give the salad a final toss to redistribute the dressing. Adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.

Step 8

Serve chilled as a refreshing side dish.
