This cucumber and tomato salad is delicious and light, with a slightly sweet citrus dressing rather than a tangy, vinegary one.

Ingredients

  • rice vinegar: 0.25 cup
  • lime juice: 2 Tbsp
  • white sugar: 1 tsp (to taste)
  • cucumber: 1 piece
  • medium tomatoes: 2 piece (cut into wedges)
  • medium red onion: 0.25 piece (sliced)
  • fresh cilantro: 3 Tbsp (chopped)
  • peanuts: 3 Tbsp (chopped, optional)

  2. Make the salad: Hold cucumber upright and use a peeler to remove strips of peel lengthwise, making a pattern of peeled and unpeeled strips all the way around for a decorative effect. Cut cucumber in half lengthwise, then thinly slice each half.
