Spicy Bashed Cucumber
When I make a Japanese Cucumber Salad, I often gently bash the Cucumber before cutting it, so that the centre gets slightly squashed and softened, and the cucumber is seasoned better. I used Toban Djan (Chilli Bean Sauce) to make this salad spicy, but you can use fresh Chilli. Alter the amount of Salt accordingly.
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Wash Cucumber and place it on the cutting board. Use a rolling pin to bash gently until it cracks. Break or cut it into bite-size pieces.
* Step 2
Sprinkle Salt and massage, then set aside a few minutes.
* Step 3
Add all other ingredients to the cucumber. Combine well and serve immediately.
