Fridge was low on stock, didn't have time to do the grocery shopping; still got some fresh tomatoes from my backyard, found the leftover onion from my previous dish & a bag of Japanese cucumber I bought a couple days ago from the local grocer... stir fry? nah.. then i will have to make some rice to go with it, but i am too hungry to wait for my rice to be cooked. Soup? couldn't think of a recipe for these ingredients at this moment... Salad??? ding ding ding ding!!
This cucumber salad goes well with all kinds of meals, or you could just eat it as a meal.. it's fast, easy,tasty & refreshing~!!!
