Vegetables Chinese up to 15 minutes

Ingredients

2 tablespoons House of Asia Oyster Sauce
1 spoon House of Asia Light Soy Sauce
2-3 tablespoons House of Asia Yuzu Vinegar
2 teaspoons chopped garlic
2 teaspoons of sugar
1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
2 tablespoons chopped chives

A method of preparing

Massage the cucumbers, crush them with a knife, and cut them into irregular pieces. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and let them sit for 10 minutes. After that time, pat them dry with a paper towel and place them in a bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk together all the sauce ingredients until the sugar dissolves. Pour the sauce over the cucumbers, mix well, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
