Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1 lb Cucumbers
2 ts Salt

SLICE THE CUCUMBERS in half lengthways. Using a spoon, remove the

cucumber pieces with salt and allow to sit in a colander set inside a
bowl for 10 minutes. Rinse them in cold water, blot them dry and toss

is hot and add the oil and garlic. Stir-fry for 15 seconds until it
is lightly brown. Mix with the cucumbers and serve.
