APPLE AND CUCUMBER SALAD


Ingredients:
• 2 medium Apples (thinly sliced) 
• 2 tbsp Lemon juice (cut into one inch long pieces) 
• 2 medium Cucumbers 
• 1 medium Orange (peeled, deseeded and segmented into two) 
• 8-10 Button Mushrooms (sliced) 
• 8 leaves Lettuce (trimmed) 
• 1 tbsp Salad Oil 
• 1/4 tsp Red Chilli Flakes

• 1 medium Carrot (cut into thin strips) 
• 2 medium Tomatoes (quartered & sliced) 
• 2 Spring Onions (sliced) 
How to make Apple And Cucumber Salad:

Take the sliced apples and sprinkle some lemon juice on it and mix well to prevent apples from turning black.
Take mushrooms in another bowl and treat it to lemon juice to avoid discoloration.
Dunk the lettuce leaves in ice cold water to keep it fresh and crisp and then tear it roughly into pieces.
In a bowl, take juice, salad oil, red chilli flakes, chopped coriander, mint leaves and salt and mix well.
In a serving plate, arrange the lettuce leaves and pour out about one-fourth part of the dressing on top of it.
Mix apples, orange segments, mushrooms, carrot, tomatoes, spring onions and rest of the dressing. Toss well.
Arrange the mixture over lettuce layer.
Serve.
