Ingredients

Dressing

  • 5 tablespoons full-fat sour cream
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons fresh dill, minced
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons monk fruit sweetener (blend with erythritol or regular sugar)
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt, or to taste
  • 1/8-1/4 teaspoon black pepper, to taste

Vegetables

  • 1 large cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 large onion, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. Mix dressing: In a large bowl, combine the full-fat sour cream, white vinegar, fresh minced dill, monk fruit sweetener, sea salt, and black pepper. Stir well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated to create a creamy dressing.
  2. Prepare vegetables: Thinly slice the cucumber and the quarter of a large onion to ensure they coat well with the dressing and absorb the flavors effectively.
  3. Add vegetables: Add the sliced cucumber and onion to the bowl with the dressing mixture. Gently stir until all the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
  4. Serve: Transfer the salad to serving dishes or refrigerate for a short while to enhance the flavors, then enjoy this crisp, creamy, and tangy low carb keto cucumber salad.

Notes

  • Use fresh dill for the best flavor; dried dill can be substituted but reduce the amount as it’s more concentrated.
  • Adjust the monk fruit sweetener to your preferred sweetness level or substitute with erythritol or sugar as desired.
  • Ensure cucumbers and onions are thinly sliced for optimal texture and flavor absorption.
  • This salad is best served chilled but can be eaten immediately after preparation.
  • For added variety, you can sprinkle some chopped fresh chives or parsley before serving.
