Spicy Cucumber Salad

Spicy Cucumber Salad
Cucumbers are awesome as a side in the summer when you're having some sort of Asian dinner with rice and some stir fries or whatever. It's refreshing and so good for you if you've had a lot of deep fried junk like how I normally do in the summers. :P


Spicy Cucumber Salad
(serves 2-4 as a side dish)

Ingredients:
  • 1 English cucumber, diced
  • 1/2 tsp garlic chili
  • 2 Tbsps white vinegar
  • 2 Tbsps soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • Salt

Directions:
  1. Place the cucumbers into a small mixing bowl. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and let it sit for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, squeeze out as much of the cucumber juice as possible and return back to the bowl.
  2. Add garlic chili, vinegar, soy sauce and sesame oil. Toss until well coated.
  3. Let the cucumbers marinate in the sauce for 15 minutes before serving.
  4. Serve as a side with rice and another okazu, or alone.
