Cooking tips
- Avoid slicing cucumbers too thinโthis will destroy their signature crisp texture. Aim for a thickness of 6โ7mm.
- Stir-frying over low or medium heat for too long causes moisture to release, making the cucumbers slimy. Always use high heat for a short time to keep them crisp.
- Leaving cooked cucumbers in the hot pan can cause discoloration and softening due to residual heat. Always transfer them promptly to a wide plate and cool immediately.
Recommended for

- People who want a light, refreshing side dish that preserves the satisfying crunch of cucumbers.
- Home cooks who want to make a delicious homemade side dish within 30 minutes using common pantry staples like cucumbers and soybean paste.
