Filipino Cucumber Salad or ENSALADANG PIPINO is the perfect side dish for grilled or fried foods. It has sliced cucumbers and red onions in a peppery, sweet, and tangy vinaigrette. It comes together in minutes!

Ingredients (6)

Instructions

  1. Combine vinegar (¼ cup), sugar (½ tsp), salt (¼ tsp), and black pepper (¼ tsp) in a container with a lid. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.

  2. Add in sliced cucumbers (1 whole) and sliced red onion (½ small). Cover the container with a lid and shake until cucumbers and onions are fully coated in the vinaigrette.

  3. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

  • You can use any vinegar you prefer like cane vinegar or apple cider vinegar.
  • Can also use fish sauce instead of salt.
  • The longer you let it sit in the vinaigrette, the better!
