I don't like cucumbers, but smacking them is delicious :-) This helps absorb the flavours of chilli, garlic, rice vinegar and sesame oil.
Ingredients:
1 green cucumber
chili flakes
a
3 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tbsp. light soy sauce
2 tbsp. vinegar
2 drops sesame oil
pinch of salt
pinch of sugar
Directions:
1. Mix A in a large bowl and set aside.
2. Chop off the ends of cucumber; lay cucumber on a chopping board. Hold blade of a cleaver flat against cucumber. Give cleaver a whack, so that cucumber bursts. Don’t turn it to mush.
3. Slice cucumber and mix well with A.
4. Pepper with chili flakes to taste and serve.
