abosalmayousef@gmail.comThis dish was a disappointment. The cucumbers were soggy and the leeks were tough. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

mharun37@hotmail.comThe fried cucumbers were a bit too oily for my taste, but the leeks were delicious. I think I would try this recipe again with less oil.

m_bola@aol.comThis dish was easy to make and very tasty. I especially liked the crispy cucumber coating. I would recommend using a good quality soy sauce for the best flavor.
