Thai Style Cucumber Relish

Work has been pretty busy for the past week. So by the time I get home, the only thing I could really put together were some quick dishes to have with some steam rice with either roast chicken or duck from the shops.

This recipe is really easy and quick to make and goes well as an accompliment to roast duck, deep fried chicken wings, thai fish cakes and thai-styled satays.

Thai Style Cucumber Relish

  • 1/4 cup white vinegar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 cucumber (quartered & sliced)
  • 4 red shallots (finely sliced)
  • 1/4 red chilli (chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons Coriander (chopped)
Method:
  1. Simmer the sugar, vinegar, salt and 1/4 cup of water. When the sugar has dissolved, take off the heat and allow to cool.
  2. Put the cucumber, chilli, shallots and coriander into a bowl. Mix together with the sugar & vinegar solution and serve as an accompliment for satays or Thai fish cake.
