Marinated Cucumber

We don't always get excited about cucumber, because it isn't always served to its best advantage. This refreshing salad takes just a few minutes to put together, but does a cucumber full justice.


Ingredients:
  • 1 large cucumber
  • 1 tsp vinegar
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • handful of mint or coriander leaves (finely chopped)
  • a pinch of sugar
  • salt & pepper (for seasoning)
Method:
  1. Peel the cucumber, halve it length ways & scoop out the seeds.
  2. Slice into thick half moons. Place in a dish along with the vinegar, olive oil, mint or the coriander leaves & season it with salt, sugar & pepper. Toss together thoroughly.
  3. Leave for 15 minutes & serve.
