Love the balance of flavours in this refreshing dish! It went well with the cosmopolitan dinner of fried rice with bok choy and middle eastern beef koftas. It will be eaten lots here over the summer. Thanks for sharing Pia. Made for Billboard Recipe Tag.

We loved the addition of ginger. It made a cucumber salad shine. I used a seedless cucumber so didn't peel or seed. I prepared these to serve with a meal, but they were even good alongside a sandwich meal. Delicious!

These cukes are delightful! I enjoyed them a whole lot today by themselves and as part of my salad. DELICIOUS! This is on my Keeper and Best List. Thank you MsPia for sharing. Made it for Billboard tag.

What a great tasting and refreshing salad this is. I used an English cucumber so I did not need to peel it or remove the seeds as they are palatable in this type of cucumber. This will be seeing to many repeats!

Lovely added mild flavour from the ginger. This recipe will compliment almost any dish not just Asian. Easy & quick to make. I made 1/3 of the recipe with no problem. I made it in the morning and let it sit to marinate until supper time.
