There is nothing quite as refreshing as a crisp, tangy cucumber salad. This Asian Cucumber Salad combines the crunch of peanuts, sesame seeds and fresh cucumber with a savory-sweet dressing full of bold flavours.
Let the salad chill in the fridge for 10-15 minutes before serving to allow the flavours to meld beautifully.
It’s light, healthy and takes less than 15 minutes to prepare. It is ideal as a side dish or even a quick snack.
This Asian Cucumber Salad is the kind of recipe you’ll find yourself making again and again. It’s fresh, flavourful and effortlessly simple.
