What Goes Into Making Cucumber Noodle Salad:

Over the years, Asian cuisine has amassed a dedicated fan base. This is mainly because of the burst of flavours the recipes offer. So much so that today, you will find every major city in India having at least one Asian restaurant, offering a range of delicacies. That's not all. People make Asian food at home, too. Take cucumber noodle salad.

We recently came across this recipe by Chef Kirti Bhoutika on social media. As the name goes, the dish includes cucumber, noodles, garlic, ginger, lemon juice and different types of spices and sauces to elevate the taste. The best part, as per Chef Kirti is that "you won't even notice the raw cucumber taste." She further states that the cucumber transforms into a noodle-like texture that's so satisfying, making it perfect as a party starter or a meal on its own.
