    1. The night before, rinse the red beans and cover them with fresh water. Leave them to soak overnight, at least 8 hours, or longer. 2. The next day, drain the water and put the beans in a pot. Cover with fresh water and cook over medium heat until tender — soft but not mushy. Drain and let them cool to room temperature. 3. Wash the napa cabbage thoroughly under running water and drain. Let it dry a little, or spin it in a salad spinner, then chop it finely. 4. Rinse the cherry tomatoes under cold water, pat them dry with paper towels, and cut them into lengthwise quarters or halves. 5. Rinse the cucumber, pat it dry, and cut it into cubes. 6. Peel the red onion, rinse it, pat it dry, and finely chop it. 7. Combine all the prepared vegetables and beans in a large bowl. 8. Make the dressing:
    • Rinse the herbs (mint and cilantro) thoroughly and dry them on a paper towel, then chop the fresh cilantro and mint as finely as possible.
    • Peel the garlic and mince it through a press or grate it on a fine grater.
    • In a mortar, grind the chopped herbs and garlic together.
    • Stir in plain low-fat yogurt, drizzle in a little extra-virgin olive oil (it's more fragrant and best for salads), and add freshly squeezed lemon juice.
    • Mix all the dressing ingredients together well. For a smoother result, you can blend the dressing. 9. Taste the dressing and adjust it to your liking with sea salt and ground black pepper. Just before serving, toss the salad with the dressing and dig in!
