Instructions

1. Preparation:

   • Wash the spring onions and cucumbers thoroughly under cold water. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

2. Chop the Ingredients:

   • Trim the roots and any wilted parts from the spring onions. Finely chop both the green and white parts of the onions and transfer them to a mixing bowl.
   • Peel the cucumbers, if desired, or leave the skin on for added texture. Cut the cucumbers in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds with a spoon. Dice the cucumber flesh into small pieces and add them to the bowl with the spring onions.

3. Mixing:

   • Squeeze the juice from the lemon over the chopped spring onions and cucumbers. Gently toss the ingredients together to ensure they are evenly coated with the lemon juice.

4. Marination:

   • Allow the mixture to marinate for a short while to let the flavors meld together. This could take about 15 minutes or longer, depending on your preference for the intensity of flavors.

5. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Once marinated to your liking, your Spring Onion Salsa is ready to serve. Enjoy it as a refreshing side dish, a topping for grilled meats or fish, or as a dip for tortilla chips.

Storage Tips:

If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Consume within a day or two for the freshest taste and texture.

Pairing Suggestions:

• Serve this Spring Onion Salsa alongside grilled chicken breasts or fish for a light and flavorful meal.
• Use it as a topping for tacos or nachos to add a refreshing crunch and tangy kick to your favorite Mexican dishes.
• Enjoy it spooned over a bed of mixed greens for a simple yet satisfying salad.
