Thank you for sharing this recipe Bethie. It was quick and easy to make. A nice change from the usual cucumber salads that we eat. We found this to be flavorful with a soft texture. I would use less soya sauce next time, it kind of overpowered the other flavors for us. I used mini cucumbers in this recipe.

Aussie Swap#84: I loved this salad! I love the savory combination of the rice vinegar and chili sauce! A delicious departure from the creamy cuke salad I normally make!
