Ingredients

1 Tbsp rice vinegar

2 tsp toasted sesame oil

2 tsp chili garlic sauce sambal oelek, up to 3 tspr

1/2 tsp kosher salt

1 large garlic clove, grated

1 pound(s) persian (mini) cucumber

1 tsp toasted sesame seeds

Directions

In a medium bowl, whisk together the vinegar, oil, sambal, salt, and garlic; set aside.

Trim off and discard a small slice from each end of each cucumber. Arrange 1 cucumber on a cutting board and place the flat side of a large chef’s knife onto the cucumber. Press down on the knife with your body weight, until the cucumber is smashed. It should naturally break into 3 or 4 lengthwise pieces. Pull these pieces apart, then cut them crosswise into 1-in diagonal pieces. Repeat the process with the remaining cucumbers. Add the cucumbers to the dressing, and toss to coat. Sprinkle evenly with sesame seeds.

Serving size: about ¾ cup
