Method
 

Preparation
  1. Slice English cucumbers into ½-inch rounds, sprinkle with sea salt, let rest 5 minutes on paper towels to draw out extra moisture for a firm base.
  2. Combine diced cherry tomatoes, chopped red bell pepper, grated carrot, and minced red onion in a bowl, stirring gently to blend vibrant colors and textures.
  3. Drizzle olive oil and fresh lemon juice over the veggies, sprinkle chopped parsley, then toss until everything gleams with freshness; taste and adjust seasoning if desired.
  4. Spoon a heaping teaspoon of the seasoned veggie mix onto each cucumber slice, pressing gently to secure the filling and create a neat, delicious bite.
  5. Finish each round with crumbled feta or a pinch of chili flakes, arrange on a platter, and serve immediately so cucumbers stay crisp.
