The Cool Cucumber

Recently I fall in love "heart" this simple dish, to the extend that I have it almost daily..

Slices of the crunchy, raw Cucumber..

Dip into the Hot and Spicy AgroMas Soy Sauce or the the called Soy flavoured Hot Sauce.

The taste is Heavenly. The soy sauce is very spicy and I'm lovin' it. To those who love spicy stuff such as kyh, oldman and Mich, do give this AgroMas hot sauce a try, if u haven't do so and I'm sure u will love it :)

Craps :A Cucumber a day supposedly made me "as Cool as a Cucumber". But since I consume it together with the hot sauce, hence... the cooling effect is neutralised by the hot element of the spicy soy sauce. Cool Cucumber+ Hot Soy Sauce = Neutral. Hahaha, another EFND ocipala crap equation. :P

mich,
u were referring to rojak sauce ah?
another sauce that i like is the Maggie Hot Chili Sauce as well as the Garlic Chili Sauce, but I still prefer the AgroMas Hot Soy Sauce than the formers :)

angeles,
Very nice leh, provided u love hot and spicy stuff lah. U can only feel the hotness after eating a while.. not on the first few bites :P

The sauce is sold at RM 2.50 per bottle, and I can consume a bottle per week. LOL

ehon,
Eat with hot sauce nicer mah
More urmmpphhhhh :D

Watch you don't turn into a cucumber, and then Misti comes along and grabs you off the table, into her bedroom, ok?

Bengbeng said...

my mother n sisters used to pound them and put them on the face and also slices on the eyes. i have tried it. it works. the skin feels refreshed too. try it some time.but make sure they r clean cucumbers not the type with all kinds of chemicals. if it is perfect no insect stings etc..that is not a good sign.

i sent u email

Chen said...

may,
Hehehe.. I didn't expect u will actually miss the cucumber in Malaysia. Btw, although zucchinis do resemble cucumber, is there any similarities in term of taste? :)

day dreamer,
Wah, u prefer the cooked one ah?
I prefer the raw cucumber than the cooked cucumber. All these while, i will sapu the raw cucumber slices served with dishes, nasi lemak, nasi goreng etc :)

cibol,

*mouth watering*
I can imagine the yummy taste :)
Just that I'm too lazy to prepare that :P

Hopefully u can find this sauce in Singapore or Sarawak. I went to two supermarkets in Kuching but didn't manage to find the sauce :(

TZ said...

Cucumber + Hot sauce for me is bizarre for my stomach. I could not eat hot & spicy stuff... Anyway, i like to eat cucumber fresh :-> It's cooling...

Cocka Doodle said...

After Misty finished with the cucumber, LB might just grab it from her and 'hollowed' the seeds out it in the middle. LOL

nyonyapenang said...

woooh...first time hear of cucumber salad with kicap. :)

Chen said...

TZ,
Too bad u cannot take hot & spicy stuff. I love hot & spicy stuff :)

yeah, there are several ways to eat the raw cucumber ~ by itself @ chili sauce @ ketchup @ hot soy sauce @ mayonnaise @ thousand island dressing etc ;)

cocka,
Walao, Cocka always do this ah when he is outstation? o.O
Piak Cocka with cucumber for turning this into the X-rated talk :P

nyonya,
Hehehe, do grab a bottle of AgroMas the next time u do your groceries (but provided if u like hot & spicy stuff lah) :)

Mmmm.. you will love the cucumbers here then. Very crunchy and sweet and juicy - like Japanese cucumber.

I just bought some Indonesian kicap manis. If I add cili padi inside, will it be the same as your hot sauce??
