Techniques
  • ¼ tsp cumin
  • ¼ tsp chilli powder
  • 2 whole cucumbers
  • 2 whole tomatoes
  • ½ whole red onion
Dice the cucumbers and tomatoes as for the Egyptian salad; dice the half red onion medium and break up its layers; add with the parsley to a bowl.
  • 2 tbsp parsley
  • 35 g yogurt
  • 25 g tahini
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 1 cloves garlic
Mix the yogurt, tahini, lemon juice, salt, pepper, cumin and optional chilli powder; grate in the garlic and mix until creamy. Do not thin it, since the vegetables release liquid.
Pour the dressing over the salad and mix a couple of minutes until well coated; the salad water thins the sauce.
