- 100 g Japanese or Persian cucumber
- ½ tsp salt
- 80 g boiled octopus or shrimp/imitation crab (for plant-based diets, swap for extra vegetables like tomato or carrot)
- sesame seeds optional garnish
Instructions
- Add 2 tsp soy sauce, 2 tsp mirin and 2 tsp rice vinegar to a small pan and heat on medium. Let the mixture bubble for 30 seconds to 1 minute to burn off the alcohol, then remove from the heat and leave to cool.
- Add 1 tbsp dried wakame seaweed to a bowl of cold water and soak it for a few minutes to rehydrate.
- Cut 100 g Japanese or Persian cucumber into thin slices, place it in a bowl and add ½ tsp salt. Use your hands to rub the salt over the cucumber and set aside for 5 minutes.
- Cut 80 g boiled octopus into small bitesize pieces or thinly slice according to preference.
- Wash the cucumber under cold water and squeeze out the excess liquid. Drain the water from the wakame and place them in a bowl with the octopus.
- Add the cooled sauce and mix well.
- Dish up and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Enjoy!
