Step 1
Start by slicing the cucumber into quarters lengthwise, then cut it into thin, bite-sized pieces. Place these vibrant green slices into a mixing bowl.

Now, it’s time to add some flavor! Drizzle in the chili oil and rice vinegar, then sprinkle in salt and sugar to taste. Gently toss everything together, ensuring each piece is coated in the delicious dressing. Finally, for that extra crunch and nutty flavor, sprinkle toasted sesame seeds on top just before serving.
