Ingredients
- 6 mini cucumbers
- 1-2 tablespoons chili crunch see notes
- 2 tablespoons carrot dressing
- 1 tablespoon ginger dressing
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 teaspoon everything bagel seasoning
- 2 tablespoons finely diced green onion
- 2 tablespoons finely diced cilantro
- optional: 1-2 teaspoons honey
Instructions
- Wash the cucumbers and cut off the ends.
- Slice into about 1/4 inch thick pieces and add to a bowl.
- Whisk together all ingredients for the dressing in a bowl.
- Pour on top of the cucumbers and toss to combine. Taste and adjust flavors as desired. For more salt, you can add more everything bagel seasoning, a touch of soy sauce or simply some salt, for more spice add some chili crunch or sweetness some honey!
- Enjoy as is or serve as a side with your favorite protein and jasmine rice.
Notes
I used the chili crunch from Trader Joe's which isn't as spicy as the Momofuku chili crunch so I used 2 tablespoons. I suggest starting with 1 and adjusting as needed.
If you can find a dressing that's carrot ginger dressing, just use 3 tablespoons of that instead of 2 and 1 of each.
