Onion Salad - Salatat Baqduness Wa Bassal

• 1 medium onion, thinly sliced (I use a white onion)
• 1 tablespoon ground sumac
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
• salt

1. Soak the onions in hot water for about 5 minutes.
2. This will soften them slightly and help take out the sharpness of the onion.
3. Drain and spread out on a paper towel.
4. Blot dry.
5. Put onions in a bowl and add sumac, lemon juice, and olive oil.
6. Mix and serve.
7. Ingredients should be adjusted to taste perhaps adding black pepper.
8. I happen to like a lot of lemon juice and sumac.
