dolari1 large cucumber
3 tbsp white wine vinegar
3 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp clear honey
sea salt to taste
Peel the cucumber and cut into thick slices. Add these to a pan and pour the wine vinegar, olive oil and honey over them. Gently cook the cucumber in the sauce until the slices have just softened, shaking the pan ocassionally to make sure the cucumber isn't sticking to the base.
Serve hot as a side dish.
These came out terrible. Absolutely terrible. Until I saw the instructions in the book to "add salt to taste." Once I did that, these things were FAN-FRICKIN-TASTIC. Something about the mix of vinegar, oil and honey that just doesn't "mesh" right until you add the salt to it.
However, if you make this, cook it all in one batch. I did two batches, and the first batch soaked up all the honey, leaving the second bath all bitter.
I also didn't realize...you can burn cucumber. Somehow.
