Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make a salad from fresh cucumbers and carrots? Prepare all products according to the list. I took two medium-sized carrots and one long cucumber.

Step 2

Step 2
Peel the carrots. Cut off the skin of the cucumber if it is rough. Peel the garlic. Rinse everything under running cold water and dry with a kitchen towel.

Step 3

Step 3
Chop the cucumbers on a grater for Korean salads or cut them by hand into thin long strips. Place the cucumber in a colander and leave it this way for 10-15 minutes to drain excess juice.

Step 4

Step 4
At this time, grate the carrots using a Korean carrot grater. It is acceptable to use a regular grater with large teeth.

Step 5

Step 5
Prepare a flavorful dressing. Pour vegetable or olive oil, soy sauce and 9% vinegar into a deep small bowl. Add half a teaspoon of sugar. Pass the garlic through a press and add to all ingredients. Use the amount of garlic to taste. I used 3 small cloves. If desired, add paprika, ground black pepper and other favorite seasonings. Mix everything thoroughly until the sugar dissolves.

Step 6

Step 6
Place the carrots in a salad bowl. Next, add the cucumbers and pour over the dressing.

Step 7

Step 7
Mix everything well and add salt to taste. Taste and add the missing element if necessary (I added a little more vinegar). Cover the salad with cling film and place in the refrigerator to steep for about 30-40 minutes.

Step 8

Step 8
Before serving, stir the salad again and garnish with fresh herbs such as dill, parsley or young onions. Ready!
