Cucumber Salad

This salad is so refreshing and is a great accompaniment to meaty and curry dishes.

All you need is an English cucumber, rice vinegar, brown sugar, sesame seed oil and some salt.

1. Cut cucumber into thin slices:

2. Add 1 t salt to draw out extra juice:

3. Wait around 5 minutes or until you see some juice accumulating in the plate.

Then start squeezing the juice out of the cucumber (don't need to squeeze hard and get all the juice out, just any excess is good) and place them in another plate.

This is roughly the amount you might squeeze out:

All ready for the dressing:  3 TB vinegar, 3 TB brown sugar and 1TB sesame seed oil.  Combine and pour over cucumber.

All done, enjoy!

'Till next time,

xox Lily.
