About

I found this recipe over at One Perfect Bite and like all of the ingredients (although I am the only one that I ever serve food to that does). The author of the recipe advised that they make this as a salad and serve it with Thai Coconut Curry. It is crisp and cool with a hot kick.

Yield: 3 cups.

You Will Need (7 things)

½ cup white or rice wine Vinegar
½ cup Water
½ cup Sugar
1 tsp Salt
2 large hothouse Cucumber or 1 pound garden cucumbers
3 tbsp thinly sliced Shallots or coarsely chopped red onion (I used a yellow onion)
2 tsp thinly sliced small red or green Chili Pepper(s) (I substituted Red Pepper flakes)

Steps (3 steps, 30 minutes)

1

Combine vinegar, water,sugar and salt in a medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat until sugar and salt dissolve. Set aside. Cool.
2

The recipe advised to cut cucumbers into 4 long strips then each strip crosswise into bite size triangles - I just cut it into small cubes. I then chopped the onion into small bits and measured out the red pepper flakes then poured into a container and mixed everything together.
3

Add cooled dressing.

Can be served at room or chilled. I served mine chilled.
