- Cut the cucumbers to 1 x 1 chunks. The chunks would give you a more substantial texture than the slices.
- The cucumber will lose some water and water down your dressing. If you don’t like that, you can sprinkle 1/2 tbsp of salt and mix with the cucumber chunks. Let it sit for half an hour and drain out the excess water.
- To make the dressing, combine the crushed garlic and all other ingredients in a small bowl. Mix well.Add the dressing to the cucumber , toss and serve immediately.
