Recipe Reviews

This is one of my go-to recipes when I need a small salad with a Thai-ish (or vaguely SE Asian) dinner. Usually I make a half recipe for the two of us.
- The cuke and red onion should be as thinly sliced as you can manage.
- If you don't like *hot*, then seed the chilies. Either way, protect your hands as you slice them. I use a baggie on my left hand (my holding hand) while I slice, and am careful not to touch with my right hand.
- For a full recipe, I reduce the sugar to 2 tablespoons. It's still noticeably sweet, but is too sweet for us with the full amount.
- I have made this with red pepper flakes when there were no chilies about and it wasn't bad. (Now I've learnt that chilies can be kept in the freezer, so it's been a while since I've tried that.)
- Make this *first*. It's best if it sits around marinating for a while.
