Raw Cabbage, Cucumber and Chilli Salad

Ingredients

• 90g pointed cabbage (3 leaves)
• 60g cucumber (about 6cm)
• 10g mild green chili (1, about 5cm long)
• juice of 1 lemon
• 1 teaspoon of olive oil

Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: n/a
Serves: 3

Method

1. Peel the leaves off the cabbage, wash them, then cut out the woody stem from the middle of the leaf. Finely slice the cabbage.
2. Cut the cucumber into four lengthways, then finely slice it. (Optionally, as we did, you can remove the seeds from the cucumber before slicing it.)
3. Cut the chilli in half, remove the seeds and the white pith and then finely slice the chilli.
4. Put the cabbage, cucumber and chilli into a mixing bowl, add in all the other ingredients and stir it around so that everything is evenly coated.
5. Serve.
