Ingredients

Salad

2 big ripe avocados cut into quarters then 1 cm / 0.4" slices
3 medium cucumbers sliced into 4mm / ⅙" rounds
¼ unit red onion finely sliced
2 tablespoon dill finely chopped, optional
2 tablespoon coriander/cilantro leaves roughly chopped, optional

Dressing

3 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoon lime juice or lemon juice, adjust to taste
¼ teaspoon chilli flakes/red pepper flakes
¼ teaspoon black pepper
¾ teaspoon cooking/kosher salt

Instructions

Preparation

Put all the salad ingredients in a large bowl. Drizzle over lime juice and oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper and red chilli flakes.
Toss gently using your hands, gently separating the avocado slices as you go. Taste and add more lime if you want.
Tumble into a bowl and serve!

Notes

Fresh dill and coriander adds lovely fresh herbiness, but it's not necessary. Leftovers will keep until the next day, the avocado stays green.
