Instructions

  1. On a cutting board, lay a large knife flat against the cucumber and gently smash it with your other hand. The cucumber should crack open. Repeat along its full length. Once the whole cucumber is split open (usually into a few long sections) cut it into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Chop the herbs and slice the chili finely. The chili pepper, once mixed with the dressing, will quickly lose its strength and will add just a subtle depth to the salad.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the chopped cucumber, herbs, and chili. Add the sesame oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sweet chili sauce. Toss everything well to coat.
  4. Serve garnished with sesame seeds or chopped peanuts, and a few fresh herbs on top. Enjoy!
