Some Tips To Make Apple Cucumber Salad

Apples – To make apple and cucumber salad recipe select best sweet apples. Here I have used seasonal Kashmir apples. In USA and other countries you can use any crispy or crunchy sweet apples like gala, honey crisp, red delicious, fuji etc.

I have not peeled the apples here. I have used organic apples from a trusted farm. Do note that apples are one of the highly chemically treated fruits with wax to increase shelf life. So mix around 1 tablespoon vinegar or add some salt to a bowl of water and soak the apples for 15 minutes. Rinse thoroughly and use. You can also peel the apples.

Cucumbers- Next do use salad cucumbers that are crispy and slightly sweet for this salad. The big desi cucumber we use for making kootu will not go well in this recipe.

Seeds and nuts- I have used toasted walnuts and flax seeds in this recipe for added crunch and nutrition boost. You can also use almonds, pecans, sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds. On the other hand you can choose to omit nuts and seeds too.

Dressing- The dressing for this cucumber and apple salad is a very simple mix of sugar, salt and lemon juice. You can also use honey and vinegar or maple and vinegar. You can also just sprinkle some salt, pepper and drizzle lemon juice just before serving.

How To Make Apple Salad

Rinse and wipe of excess moisture for apples and cucumbers. Chop them into big cubes or batons.

In another small bowl combine sugar, salt, pepper powder and lemon juice.

Pour the dressing over the chopped apples and cucumbers. Mix well.

Add roasted flax seeds, chopped walnuts and toss well.

Finally add chopped basil or mint leaves and mix.
