Asianfood-recipes : various delicious Asian cuisines around Asean region.
Serves : 4-5
Preparation time : 20-30 minutes
Cooking time :
No cooking
Ingredients :
1 large cucumber
4 oz. very thin cooked lean ham
Plum sauce (bought)
Spring onion green
Method :
Peel the cucumber. Cut it lengthwise into thin slices and then into strips approximately 1 inch wide by 2-21/2 inches long. Cut the ham into rectangles of similar size and have both cucumber and ham ready. For each ham and cucumber slice, you will need 2 strips of spring onion green. Drop the spring onion green into boiling water and leave them in it (off heat) just long enough to make them pliable.
Rinse in cold water, drain and dry. Cut each lengthwise into thin strips and set them aside.
Dot each slice of cucumber with a spot of the plum sauce. Lay a portion of the ham on top and press gently together.
For each 'slice', arrange the ham and cucumber slice on top of the 2 strips of onion green and tie the strips to secure it. Arrange on a serving tray.
