Signature Cucumber Salad

My mum taught me how to make this amazingly easy and effective cucumber salad. To say I am forever grateful would go a bit far but I definitely make this on a weekly basis because this salad goes with everything! I love it with a red pasta sauce, baked salmon, curry, etc. etc.. Just try and I am sure that it will quikcly become a staple piece in your kitchen repertoire.


Serves: 4
Time: 5 min

You need:
1 cucumber, thinly sliced (I usually use a grater)
3 tablespoons of mayonnaise

few squirts of lemon juice

2 garlic gloves (or 1 big one), squeezed
dried chives 

tiny drop of water

1. Mix the mayonnaise, lemon juice, garlic, chives in a big bowl, add a few drops of water if the consistency is too thick, but keep in mind that cucumber is a watery vegetable.
2. Slice the cucumber and add to the dressing
