  4. Using the MandoChef, very thinly slice the radishes.
  5. Using the Twistable Peeler, slice the cucumbers lengthwise into ribbons.
  6. Arrange the cucumber, tomatoes, radish, mint, parsley and pita in the Coastal 1.5 Litre Bowl or on a large platter.

Kitchen Note
Dress the salad just before serving to retain the texture of the crunchy pita.
The Smooth Chopper™ is excellent for finely chopping mint and parsley leaves.
