Viral Cucumber Salad with Chilli Oil

This is our version of the cucumber salad that’s been popping off online, with our Chilli Oil (or Chilli Sambal) bringing the kick and depth. It’s crunchy, punchy, and ridiculously moreish. Amazing for a quick lunch, light dinner or something to balance out a heavier main.
