How to Make Spicy Cucumber Relish

  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup white vinegar, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, and 1 tablespoon fish sauce.
  2. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Cook for 1 minute.
  3. Remove from heat and let cool completely to room temperature. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  4. While the dressing cools, peel one large cucumber, remove the seeds, and finely dice it.
  5. In a medium bowl, combine the diced cucumber, 1-2 finely chopped red chilies (adjust to your spice preference), 1/4 cup roasted peanuts (roughly chopped), and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh coriander.
  6. Pour the cooled dressing over the cucumber mixture and gently toss to combine. Serve immediately or chill for later use.
