Préparation

1. 1

2. 2

   Whisk together the rice vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, garlic, and salt in a small bowl until the sugar has fully dissolved.

3. 3

   Combine the smashed cucumbers, avocado chunks, sliced scallions, and chopped cilantro in a large bowl. Drizzle the prepared dressing over the vegetables and toss gently to coat, taking care to preserve the avocado texture.
