Asian Cucumber Salad

Asian Cucumber Salad Recipe
Ingredients:
1 cucumber, cut in half and thinly sliced
1 carrot, peeled to create peel pieces and then chopped up
1/8 cup of thinly sliced red onion
1/4 cup of rice vinegar
1/3 cup of sugar
1 tsp. of thai chili garlic sauce


Preparation
Salt the cucumber that is sliced a good amount. Let them sit in colander to leach out the water from them. Once the hour is up rinse them off in the colander and towel dry them. Yes ring them out a bit. The point is to remove the extra water. Place the cucumbers in a larger bowl.

In a small bowl mix the rest of the ingredients.  Once you have dissolved the sugar in the sauce you can pour the sauce over the cucumbers. Mix the sauce with cucumbers. Best to let it set for 30 mins, but you can eat it right away.
