Spicy cucumber and spring onion salad.

Spicy cucumber and spring onion salad.
I love, love, love this.
To serve 4,

peel and finely chop 1 clove of garlic.
Peel and finely slice 2 spring onions and ½ a fresh red chilli.
Roughly peel 1 cucumber.
Slice off the ends, quarter the cucumber lengthways, then, using a teaspoon, scoop out the seeds and discard.
Slice the cucumber into long, angled strips about 0.5cm - ¼ in thick.
Put them in a bowl with the garlic, chilli and spring onions.

In a separate bowl mix together
- 3 tbsp rice vinegar,
- 1 tsp sesame oil,
- 1 tsp fish sauce,
- 1 tsp light soy sauce,
- 1 tsp caster sugar and a pinch of salt to form a dressing.
Pour this over the cucumber mixture and leave to sit for 2 minutes before serving.
