Ingredients
- 300 g Cottage cheese

- 50 g Red onion
- 10 g Fresh mint
- 20 ml Lemon juice
- 15 ml Olive oil

Method
- 1
Dice the 250g of cucumber and the 250g of tomato into 2cm pieces and finely slice the 50g of red onion.
- 2
Tear the 10g of fresh mint leaves with your fingers rather than cutting them, so the edges do not bruise and blacken.

Whisk 20ml of lemon juice with 15ml of olive oil, a quarter teaspoon of salt and a half teaspoon of black pepper in the bottom of a large bowl.
- 4
Add the diced cucumber and tomato and the sliced red onion and turn them through the dressing until every piece is glossy.

Spoon the 300g of cottage cheese into 2 bowls, pile the dressed vegetables alongside and scatter the torn mint over the top.
