The original recipe here makes about 1 ½ cups.

Ingredients

  • 8 ounce cucumber, raw, without peel
  • 1 ounce onion, white, yellow or red, raw

Instructions

  1. Thinly slice the cucumber and white onion. Mix in a bowl. Stir in the remaining ingredients and continually combine until the cucumber and onion are completely coated in the flavorings.
