A simple and quick-to-prepare salad of fresh cucumbers with onions "Oi-torment" ("Oy" - cucumber, "Muchim" - mixed, seasoned) is a popular everyday dish in Korean cuisine.

Juicy, crispy, spicy in taste - this salad is an excellent option for a vegetable side dish or a savory snack for rice, noodles, fried meat and barbecue, which can be prepared and served in just 5 minutes.

Unlike most Korean snacks, this salad does not require infusion or pickling, on the contrary, it is recommended to cook it a few minutes before meals and serve immediately, until the cucumbers are juiced and remain firm and crispy.

Prepare the ingredients for the Korean Onion Cucumber Salad.

Cut the cucumbers and onions into thin half rings. Chop the garlic and green onion finely.

Place prepared ingredients in a salad bowl. Add sesame seeds, sugar, and dried chili flakes.

Pour in the soy sauce and sesame (or vegetable) oil.

Stir the salad thoroughly until the sugar dissolves, then serve immediately.

Spicy Korean cucumber salad with onions is ready. Enjoy your meal!
