Ingredients:
- 200 gr Persian cucumbers (about 2 pieces)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 clove garlic (finely minced)
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1/4 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp rice vinegar
- 1 tsp chili oil (optional)
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
How to cook:
- Prepare the cucumber:
- Wash the cucumber and then pat dry. Cut the cucumber into about 1/2-inch thick slices. Try to cut as evenly as possible so every piece is roughly about the same size
- Add salt and let it marinate for 1 hour. The salt will draw out water from the cucumber, which will make the cucumber crisp
- Rinse off excess salt with clean water. Pat the cucumber really dry
- Prepare seasonings:
- Mix all ingredients for seasonings and stir to combine
- Putting everything together:
- Pour the seasonings over the cucumber. Chill in the fridge for at least one hour if possible. This cucumber salad tastes even better when it's chilled
