Cucumber & pomegranate salad with cumin and lime

Cucumber & pomegranate salad with cumin and lime

Diana Henry's simple, fresh salad adds a fantastic burst of colour to the table. It’s particularly good with any sweeter meat dishes (such as leg of lamb with a harissa and honey or pomegranate glaze).
