Excellent, refreshing salad. Use a slotted spoon to serve, as the salt brings out the juices of the vegetables. Whole family enjoyed, even kids, although I did use less onion than recipe called for.

Fresh and crunchy. The only thing I added was some chopped mint because that is how I had it at a Persian restaurant. It tastes more authentic!

This is a traditional dish that all Persians have had in their lifetime. The only thing missing is chopped mint, which brings the whole dish together!

Living in a Persian household for many years, we have changed this recipe & it is even better. Finely chop dill, italian parsley and mint, red pepper,red onion, persian cucumber (all a small dice) tomatoes are optional Instead of Lemon juice, use Japanese rice wine... what flavor!

I love how healthy & delicious this is !!! I added a good handful of minced fresh mint & about half a handful of minced fresh italian parsley. I topped with feta. I recommend that you serve with a slotted spoon &/or place in a different bowl (after draining) before serving. I accompanied this with baked pita triangles.

This was very delicious, but I felt it was missing something. I think next time, I'll add feta cheese to it, as other reviews suggested. *9-19-07*EDIT: I made this again, this time topped with feta cheese, mint leaves, and some parsley. This makes all the difference! So delicious, try it!
