This is our take on the Iranian staple, Shirazi salad. By smacking the cucumbers—a technique borrowed from China—you achieve a crunchy texture along with some smashed pieces that really absorb the dressing. Serve it as part of a spread, as a starter, or as a lunchtime salad.

Yotam Ottolenghi on Instagram: "Smacked cucumber, radishes, sumac pickled onions, lots of fresh herbs. An explosion of flavour, texture and colour.. Just as a salad should be. This particular ‘smacked’ technique stems from China and means you get both the crunchy texture of cucumber, as well as some smashed pieces which really absorb the dressing. We’ve applied that technique to the Iranian staple, Shirazi salad, with a few more Ottolenghi twists and turns along the way.. Find the recipe at my link in bio."

We LOVE a smacked cucumber salad. Originating in China – smacked cucumber is traditionally combined with flavours such as sesame oil, soy sauce and chilli. Our version uses this technique - which tenderises the cucumber, making it absorb more delicious dressing - but combines it with homemade tzatziki flavours and a wholegrain mustard dressing for a fusion twist!
