Time 8h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 hot house cucumbers, thinly sliced
2 fresh hot red chiles, thinly sliced
2 large handfuls fresh mint leaves
2 cups rice vinegar
4 teaspoons sugar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine the cucumbers, chiles, and mint in a mixing bowl. Pour in the vinegar, sprinkle with the sugar, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together so the cucumbers are well coated with the vinegar. Refrigerate overnight if possible; the cucumbers will soften as they marinate and the flavors will deepen.
