This popular Arab salad is different from conventional Western salads in that all the ingredients are finely chopped and absorb the dressing and each others' flavors better. Do not prepare it too long before serving, as the ingredients will wilt. Dress it just before putting it on the table.
Ingredients can vary according to taste.
Salt and black pepper Wash the lettuce, if necessary. Peel the onion or scallions. Put the prepared vegetables into a salad bowl and mix lightly with the radishes and herbs. Mix the dressing ingredients thoroughly, sprinkle over the salad, and toss well.
