Courgette and radish salad
If you need a quick an easy side dish that goes well with grilled/fried meat and fish the recipe of this courgette and radish salad could come handy. It’s ready under ten minutes and ideal for parties and picnics too. I normally serve it with grilled koftas, shish kebab or Greek meatballs (keftedes) tacked in a grilled pita bread.
Ingredients
Method
- Thinly slice the radishes and put them in a sieve. Shave the courgette into thin, lon strip using a vegetable peeler. Put these in the sieve too. Drizzle with the lemon juice, season with salt and mix well. Let it stand over a bowl for at least 10 minutes, or up to 30 minutes if you have time. Drain, and put them in a serving bowl.
- Finely chop the spring onions, add to the bowl.
- Mix the yoghurt with the dill and garlic.
- Pour this over the salad, toss well and season with freshly ground pepper. Taste, and add more lemon juice of needed.
- Serve with olive oil drizzled over the salad.
