1 large cucumber

2 tomatoes, seeded and cut into wedges

¼ red onion, thinly sliced

¼ cup rice vinegar

2 tablespoons lime juice

1 teaspoon white sugar, or to taste

3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

3 tablespoons chopped peanuts

Peel the cucumber in stripes lengthwise with a vegetable peeler, alternating skinned stripes with peel for a decorative effect. Slice the cucumber in half lengthwise, and then thinly slice. Place the cucumber in a salad bowl with the tomato and red onion, and mix together.

Pour the rice vinegar and lime juice into a separate bowl, and stir in the sugar until dissolved. Pour the dressing over the salad;mix, cover, and refrigerate until chilled, at least 30 minutes. Just before serving, stir in the cilantro and sprinkle with chopped peanuts.
