Ingredients
2 cucumbers
Salt

1. Peel cucumbers and cut in half lengthwise. Scoop out seeds with a spoon; then cut crosswise in 1/2 inch slices.
2. Arrange slices on a flat plate and sprinkle well with salt. Let stand 1 hour; then squeeze each slice gently to press out as much moisture as possible.
3. Heat sesame oil. Add cucumbers and stir-fry until softened and translucent (1 to 2 minutes).
4. Then stir in sugar and serve at once.
