Fresh cucumber & radish salad with Mandela

Crunchy, refreshing and full of flavour. This is the kind of salad we keep coming back to when the days get warmer.

Cucumber, radish and fresh herbs bring all the freshness, while our fermented almond product Mandela adds creaminess, gentle acidity and that little something that makes the whole bowl feel complete. Finished with lemon and herbs, it’s simple, seasonal and surprisingly satisfying.

Perfect as a light lunch, side dish or alongside grilled vegetables and sourdough.

Ingredients (2 servings)

For the salad:

  • 2 mini cucumbers (or 1 large cucumber)
  • 6–10 radishes
  • 1 shallot (or small red onion)
  • a handful of fresh chives
  • a small handful of fresh dill
  • a few mint leaves
  • 80–100 g Grashka Mandela

For the dressing:

  • juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • sea salt
  • freshly ground black pepper

Method


  1. Slice the cucumber and radishes into bite-sized pieces. Thinly slice the shallot.

  3. In a large bowl, combine cucumber, radishes, shallot and herbs.
  4. Add lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper, then toss everything together.
