Thin cucumber slices shaken with a seasoned dressing. It needs no cooking.

Use a mandolin to slice the cucumber directly into a deli quart container:

1 cucumber sliced

Alternatively, use a knife to thinly slice the cucumber and place it in a bowl.

Add to the container (or bowl):

1.5 tbsp soy sauce

1 tbsp toasted sesame oil

1 tsp fish sauce

1 tsp sugar

sprinkle msg

1 clove garlic grated

2 green onions sliced

1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds

Place the lid on the container. Shake until all the ingredients coat the cucumber slices evenly. If using a bowl, toss well.

Serve immediately, or marinate in the fridge for a couple of hours first. The sooner it is eaten, the crunchier the cucumbers. For a fresh cucumber salad, serve immediately. For a quick pickled cucumber salad, marinate for 1-2 hours before serving.
