Ingredients
- 1 large English cucumber Note 1
- 1 lb radishes Note 2
- ½ cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons chopped dill leaves
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice juice of half a lemon
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest optional
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Wash and dry the cucumber and thinly slice it. (Note: English cucumber has a thin peel, so no need to peel.)
- Radishes are usually very muddy, so scrub wash them thoroughly and dry them with a paper towel. Trim the top and the bottom and thinly slice them too.
- In a large mixing bowl combine sour cream, dill, salt and pepper, lemon juice, lemon zest, if using, and garlic powder. Whisk everything well until smooth and creamy.
- Place the sliced cucumber and radishes in a large mixing bowl and add the dressing. Mix well. Serve immediately.
Notes
Note 1: This recipe uses English cucumber. But you can use regular cucumber too, but make sure to peel it as regular cucumber peel is thicker than English cucumber. You'd need about 2 cups of sliced cucumbers.
Note 2: You'd need about 2 cups of sliced radishes.
