Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large cucumbers, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sugar or honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 small red chili, finely chopped (optional for heat)
- Fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
- Sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
- Start by washing the cucumbers thoroughly. Use a Fullstar Ultimate Veggie Prep Master to quickly julienne or thinly slice the cucumbers for uniform crispness.
- In a small bowl, whisk together rice vinegar, lime juice, soy sauce, sugar or honey, and minced garlic until well combined. Add chopped red chili if you like extra spiciness for a true Thai flavor.
- Add the sliced cucumbers into a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the cucumbers and toss gently to coat evenly. Let it marinate for 10-15 minutes in the refrigerator, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
- Before serving, sprinkle with chopped cilantro and sesame seeds for added texture and flavor. Serve immediately or chill for an hour for a more intense taste.
Notes
- Always use fresh, crisp cucumbers for the best texture.
- Adjust the level of chili and vinegar to suit your taste preferences.
- For an extra crunch, add sliced peanuts or cashews.
