Thai food is a treat to eyes with the variety of colors from all the healthy and fresh ingredients. I love eating and cooking Thai food. And recently, I wanted to start making Thai sides along with all the scrumptious curries and rice entrees.
Thai Cucumber salad is just the thing everyone would love during summers. It sweet and tangy and has the right crunch from the toasted nuts. After having tried various versions here is the one my family loves
Recipe: Thai Cucumber Salad
2 cucumbers
1 red bell pepper
1 red onion
1/4 cup toasted peanuts, finely chopped
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
1/4 cup basil leaves, chopped
juice of half lemon
1 Tbsp soy sauce
1-2 tsp brown sugar
1/2 or 1 tsp red chili flakes
Cut the cucumbers, red pepper and onion by your choice of style. I like my onions and pepper julienne. And when am tired styling my cut with onion and peppers, I cut cucumbers the easy style ;-)
Well cutting veggies for this salad follows no rules. So play with it.
Mix all ingredients. Toss well and serve fresh or chilled.
