1
Prepare the Cucumbers
Slice the cucumbers into thick rounds and then crush them lightly with the flat side of a knife or a rolling pin. This helps to release their juices.
2
Make the Soy Vinaigrette
In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, and chili oil until well combined.
3
Combine Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, add the crushed cucumbers, soy vinaigrette, cashews, and fresh cilantro. Toss gently to combine.
4
Season and Serve
Add salt to taste and top with crunchy garlic. Serve immediately or let it chill in the fridge for 10-15 minutes for enhanced flavors.
