Step 1

Peel the cucumbers, halve them lengthways, then scoop out the seeds. Dice the cucumbers into 2cm cubes. Toss with the salt marinade and mix well.

Step 2

Leave the cucumber cubes in a colander for 20 minutes to drain the excess water. Rinse it in water and blot them dry with kitchen towel.

Step 3

Heat oil in a wok or large saucepan until it is slightly smoking, add the ginger and spring onions, and stir-fry for about 30 seconds.

Step 4

Add the cucumbers and seasoning and keep stirring for another 30 seconds until they are well coated with the spices and flavours.

Step 5

Add the water and continue to stir-fry over high heat for 3-4 minutes until most of the water has evaporated and the cucumbers are softened. Add the garnish and dressing. Serve immediately.
