Steps

10 mins

1

Cut your cucumber of choice into chunks.
2

I like to use a LOT of garlic, but you can use however much you like. If it's not enough this time around, make it again next week and add more garlic. :)
3

Put your oil of choice in the pan and add in the cut up garlic. Medium heat.
4

When garlic is "dancing" in the pan, add in cucumbers.
5

Add some salt and if you want, a dash of sesame oil. You can also forgo the garlic and just use sesame oil.
6

In maybe 3-4 min, taste test the cucumber. Make sure it's not still raw, but that it's still crunchy and salty/sesame-y enough. Adjust as needed.

Sounds weird to cook cucumber, but my friends are big fans!
