| Servings: 2 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 small cucumber, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 small onion sliced
  • ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes or 1 teaspoons minced jalapeño
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 ½ tablespoons cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • ⅓ teaspoon pepper
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Do NOT leave the combined salad marinate for more than one hour.

Notes

  1. This is a variation on a dish common in Thai restaurants. The sugar gives the misleading impression that the salad will be sweet but this is not the case. Serve with Thai Style Beef w/ Almond Sauce. Make it no more then 1 hr ahead since it becomes hotter with time
