A refreshing and flavorful salad perfect for any meal.
Dice the ripe tomatoes into bite-sized pieces.
Use a sharp knife to avoid squishing the tomatoes.
Slice the cucumber into thin rounds.
Peeling the cucumber is optional, depending on your preference.
Finely chop the red onion.
Soak the chopped onion in cold water for a few minutes to reduce its sharpness.
Combine the tomatoes, cucumber, and onion in a mixing bowl.
Mix gently to avoid breaking the vegetables.
In a small bowl, mix the sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, fresh lemon juice, and powdered sugar until well combined.
Adjust the seasoning to taste.
Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss to coat evenly.
Ensure all vegetables are coated with the dressing for maximum flavor.
Let the salad sit for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
This resting time enhances the taste of the salad.
Serve the salad as a refreshing side dish.
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro for added color and flavor.
