All of our children love cucumbers. Love them. We go through 3-4 each week in our house.
I often make cucumber salad “the Dutch way” – peeled and sliced cucumbers with a simple dressing made from mayo and vinegar – as an accompaniment to chicken wings or some other spicy dish. Cucumbers are naturally refreshing and cooling, so they pair nicely with foods that have a little more kick to them.
This cucumber salad is a bit more special than the version I normally prepare. I’m not usually a big fan of curry, but it takes a supporting role instead of center stage, and the hint of Indian flavor inside the creamy dressing is just perfect.
Gluten-free, sugar-free, nut-free, and low carb, this no-special-ingredient cucumber salad is a THM S that can be made in a jiffy and enjoyed the next day, too. A large family recipe, since our family loves cucumbers so much, this salad makes 8 servings.
