Step 1 - You can peel the cucumbers but I don't bother. Trim the cucumbers on each end and sliced in half lengthways. Scoop out the seeds and discard. Slice diagonally into bite sized pieces. Place in a bowl.

Step 2 - Cut the avocado up into small cubes and do the same with the deta. Mix these with the cucumber and add the fresh mint. Whisk the lime juice, zest, olive oil and sugar in a small bowl or jug and then pour over the salad. Toss the salad and add black pepper.
