I make this soooo often - it's easy, fast and delicious - Love it ❤️

Delicious! I had to add additional gochugaru as it wasn’t spicy enough for me. Very delicious way of using extra cucumber up (which I did due to another PUL recipe).

Quick and easy side to pair with Asian dishes. Love the tingly spice from the gochugaru.

My new favourite way to eat cucumber 🤩


Kirsty Gibb - April 20, 2024, 3:35 p.m.

I used a 1/2 tsp of red chilli flakes which was a tiny bit too much as I only had 6 mini cucumbers & never read the recipe properly but it was very delicious.

Super easy recipe that works great as a side or a topping. As a student, these are my favourite type of recipes as I am always throwing odd dishes together so quick and easy sides/toppings are my go-to.
