Cucumber Salad (from Eszter.com)
Thanks to my Mom for this one!
Ingredients:
Cucumbers - they shrink a lot so use at least three or four for
two/three people.
Salt
Garlic
Sugar
Vinegar
Sour cream
Prepare while preparing other dishes, must sit for half an hour. There
is some guessing involved in the amounts used.
How to prepare:
Slice up the cucumbers into thin slices.. using a grater is best (just
slices, not strips). Put into a bowl and add lots of salt (two/three
teaspoons). Mix thoroughly with hands. Let sit for half an hour (or
more is not a problem).
Next, squeeze with hands to rinse out. Taste and if too salty, run
some water on
it and rinse again.
Take the garlic, chop it up (best to press actually) and mix it in with
the cucumbers. Now take some vinegar (about two tablespoons) and
add. Add some (1 teaspoon) sugar as well. Mix. Then take some sour
cream (two tablespoons), mix to smooth and then add to salad. Before
serving, add some red paprika on top for decor.
