Think cucumbers are boring? Think again. This spicy smashed cucumber and feta salad brings the crunch, the kick, and the creamy tang all in one bite. The cucumbers get a little smash treatment so they can soak up every drop of the punchy soy, vinegar, honey, garlic, and chilli dressing. Toss through salty feta and a handful of fresh coriander and you’ve got yourself a side that steals the spotlight.

Quick to make, cool to eat, and the ultimate wingman for your grilled beef or lamb.
