Sweet Curry Cucumber Salad Sandwiches

Submitted by grumblebee

"A delicious, crunchy and refreshing cucumber salad sandwich. With all the flavours of curry but without the heat, the slightly sweet curry flavour is always a hit. Feel free to add in extras such as onion, alfalfa sprouts or celery, but i like it just as is!"

Very unique. We really enjoyed the sweet curry idea and will certainly experiment with it some more in the future. I'll probably add other things like onions and such to experiment with the cucumber salad next time. Thanks for sharing!
