Thai Cucumber and Peanut Salad

- Serves 4
​My Thai lime dressing is perfectly sweet, sour and spicy, and goes beautifully with not just papaya and mango salads but any seasonal vegetables of your choice. It’s especially great on cool, crunchy cucumbers on a hot summer’s day. Dried shrimps may be optional in this recipe, but do add that extra umami the recipe needs. They may be skipped in case of allergies or if you wish make a vegetarian version of the dish. The same applies to fish sauce, which can be replaced with salt when making the vegetarian version of the dish.
