Ingredients

  • 1 head butter lettuce

  • 1 Lebanese cucumber,thinly sliced

  • 1 small pack Korean seasoned roasted nori seaweed

  • 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds

DRESSING

  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar

  • 2 tsp caster sugar

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce

  • 1 tsp sesame oil

Method

  1. Step1

    Pick and wash the lettuce leaves,combine with the cucumber and refrigerate until ready to serve. Mix the ingredients for the dressing together and stir to dissolve the sugar.

  2. Step2

    Spin the leaves and cucumber together to dry them thoroughly,then transfer to a large bowl and toss with the dressing. Arrange on a serving plate and snip the seaweed into thick strips over the lettuce using scissors. Scatter with sesame seeds and serve.

Adam’s tip:The main difference between a Japanese choregi salad and a Korean geotjeori salad is that the Japanese version is rarely spicy.
