Cucumber and Fennel Salad

Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare Cucumber and Fennel

   3 min

   Begin by placing 1 large cucumber in a sieve over a bowl. Evenly sprinkle 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of sugar over the cucumber slices, allowing them to sit for approximately 10 minutes. This process will help to extract excess moisture, ensuring your salad remains crisp. After the time has elapsed, incorporate 1 sliced fennel bulb into the mixture for added flavor and texture.

   In a mixing bowl, combine 150ml sour cream, the freshly squeezed juice of 1 lemon, 1 tablespoon of white wine vinegar, and a bunch of finely chopped dill. Stir the mixture thoroughly to create a smooth, creamy dressing, then season with black pepper according to your preference. This dressing will enhance the flavors of the cucumber and fennel beautifully.
