Spicy Cucumber Side Dish /Seasoned Cucumber/Oi -Muchim ( Korean Style Cucumber Salad)

It’s a simple and superb spicy cucumber dish. I looked for making something different with cucumbers. Then I found this interesting recipe. I got fresh picked cucumbers from my garden. This is a quick dish, and can be easily prepared with minimal ingredients.

This is a Korean side dish using cucumbers. It’s called Oi Muchim. Oi means Cucumber and Muchim is nothing but Seasoned. So we can call this dish as Mixed/ Seasoned Cucumber. This goes very well well with fried rice. Eat well and stay healthy!
