Jamie Oliver's Cucumber Salad - Take Two


Last time I blogged about this salad (March 2010) we ate it so quickly that I didn't get a chance for any pictures. I made it again last night and so here is an updated post! Also, I made a couple of changes to the recipe. The original calls for natural yogurt but I used Créme Fraiche (2 tbsp) and found it was so much better.  40% milk fat will do that I guess! I also omitted the mint per my husband's request. Instead of a fresh chili (which I could not find at my local store today) I used red chili flakes.  The original post is here and will give you all the instructions on how to prepare the salad. Try it - you'll like it!

I love cucumbers. Unfortunately neither of my daughters like them and so I seldom make salads as I'm the only one who eats it. This looks delicious.
