Spicy Thai Cucumber Salad image

This stuff is addicting! I love eating it along side my rice as it has a real kick. This dish is -in my oppionion- along the lines of a kimchee- a sort of fresh, spicy, pickley, salady sort of thing. I've given some play with the garlic and the chile paste amounts so that you can make it milder.

Time 15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 large cucumber
1 small white onion
4 tablespoons fish sauce
1 -2 tablespoon chili paste with garlic
2 -4 garlic cloves, minced
1 small lime, juice of
2 tablespoons white vinegar or 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 -2 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped

Steps:

  • Peel the cucumber and slice paper thin.
  • Slice the onion paper thin.
  • Make the dressing with the rest of the ingredients.
  • Toss the veggies with the dressing.
  • Set in the fridge to marinate.
  • I find that this salad improves with age as the cucumbers and onion soak up the flavors from the dressing, however if you slice your veggies thin enough, it's good enough to eat right away.
