Slice the cucumbers in half lengthways and, using a spoon, remove any seeds. Cut the cucumber halves into 7.5 cm X 12-mm / 3 x 1/2-in

pieces.

Combine the cucumber pieces with salt and allow to sit in a colander set inside a bowl for 10 minutes.

Rinse them in cold water, blot them

dry and toss with the sugar and vinegar.

Heat a wok or large frying pan until hot and add the oil, garlic, and chili flakes.

Stir-fry for 15 seconds until it is lightly brown.

Mix with the cucumbers and serve
