Ingredients

  • 4 Persian or Kirby cucumbers
  • 2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 2 tbsp. canola oil
  • 3 clove garlic
  • 3 oz. salami
  • 4 c. cooked white rice

  • 1 Thai chile or serrano
  • 3 oz. arugula
  • Pepper

Instructions

  1. In a colander set over a bowl, toss the cucumbers with the 2 teaspoons of salt and let stand for 30 minutes. Rinse well and squeeze dry. In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil.
