Beef Salad


I tried this salad in Evia Yoghurt for the first time and fell in love straight away. The smell of coriander, succulent beef and tasty vegetables are the treat you'll get in one bowl.  Then I tried to make my own with little twist and modifications, and the results had always been great, so I thought I'd share it with you.
Here it is:

Beef  Salad


2 pcs cucumber - diagonally sliced
2 pcs tomatoes - cut into wedges (you can also use 250g cherry tomatoes)
