Omani Salad is very similar to an Arabic salad with cucumber, tomatoes, onion, parsley and mint.
What makes it a bit different is the addition of preserved lemons. They add a wonderful element and I have included a link if you want to pick some up. Please note that I do earn a small commission however it does not affect the price you pay.
