Shirazi Salad

Shirazi salad is a traditional salad made with cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, and lemon or lime juice. Cilantro, dried mint, and green peppers can be added to enhance the flavor and texture, if desired. The salad is named after Shiraz, a city in the southwest of the country.

It is traditionally served as a refreshing side dish accompanying rice or meat dishes, although it can also be eaten on its own, especially during the summer.
