Wow, have I got a treat for you all today! I recently stumbled across a Syrian classic that is going to revolutionize your salad game. This salad is so delicious, fresh, and packed with flavor that I can almost guarantee you’ll be coming back for seconds.
The Classic Syrian Salad
There’s no denying that this salad is a true classic. It’s been enjoyed in Syria for generations and is now making its way around the world. This salad is so simple to make and only requires a handful of fresh ingredients.
Ingredients:
- 2 medium tomatoes, diced
- 2 small cucumbers, diced
- 1 small white onion, sliced
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, cucumbers, and sliced onion.
- Add in the chopped parsley and mint and toss everything together to combine.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.
- Pour the dressing over the salad and toss everything together until it is well coated in the dressing.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
This salad is the perfect accompaniment to any meal. Serve it up alongside grilled chicken, meat kebabs or lamb, and you’ll have a complete dinner that everyone will enjoy. It’s also a great side dish to bring to summer barbecues or potlucks because it can be made in advance and tastes even better the longer it sits.
I hope you give this salad a try – it’s one of my all-time favorites and I know you’re going to love it too!
