Seven minute recipe: Cucumber salad with tahini dressing
This is one of the fastest meals I know how to cook, as well as being both tasty and healthy. I have trialled making a video, which was super awkward. As you will see, if you watch the video, when I say it’s a seven minute recipe that includes time for forgetting where I put…
