Serve this refreshingly crisp, minty salad, which also features savory green olives, with lahmajun or as an accompaniment to almost an meal.
WHY THIS RECIPE WORKS
To keep the salad from being overly wet, we salt the cucumbers and tomatoes to rid them of excess water. We then finish the salad with savory chopped green olives, fresh tasting mint, lemon juice for brightness, and olive oil.
