Thai Cucumber Mint Salad

submitted by butterflydog

1 large English cucumber or 4 to 5 Kirby cucumbers ( young, tender, thin
skin cucumbers if possible
) unpeeled and thinly sliced 1/2 medium red onion thin sliced
1/2 cup fresh chopped mint
1/4 cup fresh chopped basil
1/4 cup fresh chopped cilantro
1 Tbsp peanut oil
2 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
1 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp Thai red chili paste ( optional ) if you like spicy, hot
1/4 cup chopped peanuts

Having all the fresh herbs in my garden, this recipe proved to be very
refreshing and tasty. Great
side dish for barbecues.
Simply mix all and marinade 10 minutes before serving.

Yield: 4 servings, double recipe if needed.
