Instructions
Peel and slice the cucumber and set aside. (slice with a knife or mandoline)
Slice the celery and set aside. (slice with a knife or mandoline)
For the fennel, after slicing, place in a bowl with water and a very good squeeze of lemon juice. This will prevent it from oxidizing and just strain them when you are ready to assemble the salad.
Once you are ready to assemble the salad, make the simple dressing.
Combine olive oil, lemon juice, Champagne vinegar, salt and pepper in small bowl and whisk well until completely combined.
Place drained Fennel, cucumber, celery and pour half of the dressing. Toss gently. Check to ensure there is sufficient dressing on the salad, add more if you need to.
Sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt.
Serve immediately.
