Hello everyone! For those who love it when there's a little ngapi (fish sauce) dip to go with their rice, this time I want to share how to make a delicious spicy Korean-style cucumber salad that you can enjoy as an extra side dish.
Ingredients
- 1 stalk spring onion (thinly sliced)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vinegar
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1 clove garlic (thinly sliced)
- 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and sugar
- 2 cucumbers (thinly sliced)
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. In a large bowl, put the cucumber and spring onion together.
2. In a small bowl, combine the vinegar, soy sauce, and garlic, and mix well. Then add the sugar and salt, and stir until the sugar has dissolved.
3. Pour the resulting vinegar mixture over the cucumber prepared earlier.
4. Sprinkle in the chili powder and sesame seeds, and mix well until combined. Then taste for a light saltiness.
Once the spicy and salty flavors are balanced, you'll have a delicious, spicy cucumber salad ready to enjoy.
