Ingredients
- 2 Persian cucumbers
- ½ red onion
- 1 Jalapeño
- 3-4 tablespoon cream cheese preferably with herbs
- 1 tablespoon Greek yogurt or sour cream
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ⅓ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ¼ teaspoon coarse sea salt
- 3-4 tablespoon sharp cheddar cheese
- ¼ teaspoon soy sauce regular or light (optional)
- sesame seeds black & white (for garnish)
Instructions
- Slice the cucumber without peeling it with a mandolin or by a sharp knife on a cutting board. Make ½ cm (¼”) thick slices.
- Add the sliced cucumbers to a mixing bowl or a jar.
- Dice the red onions and jalapenos and add them on top of the cucumbers.
- Add the cream cheese, greek yogurt, garlic powder, smoked paprika, flaky sea salt, and cheddar cheese. Top these with a splash of soya sauce.
- Give everything a good toss in the bowl, or if you’re using a jar, pop on the lid and shake it up until the creamy dressing coats everything evenly.
- Transfer the salad onto a serving plate and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Enjoy cold!

Notes
- Instead of using a jar, opt for a mixing bowl for this salad. A jar doesn’t distribute the cream cheese evenly, and shaking it too much can mush the cucumbers.
- Chill the salad for 15-20 minutes before serving so that the cucumbers absorb the maximum flavour.
