Dice the Armenian cucumber small, salt it lightly, and drain excess water.
Finely chop the black olives and crush the garlic.
Whisk olive oil with lemon juice and salt.
Toss the cucumber, olives, and garlic with the dressing for 1 minute without crushing.
Transfer the mash salad to a serving plate while the dressing is glossy.
💡 Tip: Rubbing the Armenian cucumber with salt and resting it for 5 minutes helps it release excess water.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Spread in a small bowl with black olive pieces visible on top.
