TITA'S CUCUMBERS WITH OLIVE OIL



Tita's Cucumbers With Olive Oil image

This is a super-simple but delicious snack that my grandmother (Tita) would give me either by itself or along with a heaping plate of arroz con habichuelas (rice with beans).

Time 2m

Yield 6-12 rounds (varies), 1-2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 cucumber
olive oil
salt

Steps:

  • Peel and slice cucumber into 1/4-inch slices/rounds. (Tita used to cut the seeded centers out of the cucumber slices for me. This is not necessary, but I think it's better. You can also buy a seedless cucumber.).
  • Arrange cucumber slices on a large plate.
  • Lightly pour or sprinkle olive oil over rounds.
  • Sprinkle with salt.

ROASTED CUCUMBERS AND ONIONS WITH FRESH HERBS



Roasted Cucumbers and Onions with Fresh Herbs image

I invented this recipe out of a need for a way to use the surplus cucumbers from a friend's garden this summer. I had never heard of someone roasting cucumbers, and a quick internet search turned up nothing, so I thought it would make an interesting culinary experiment. As it turned out, though, I discovered a new family favorite! This fast and easy recipe makes a great side dish for any occasion. Great with chicken or steak! I've even eaten it by itself for a light lunch. What more could you ask for?

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

olive oil cooking spray
2 tablespoons butter, cut into small chunks
1 large cucumber - peeled, seeded, and cut lengthwise into spears
1 small sweet onion (such as Vidalia®), cut in half and sliced
1 teaspoon chopped fresh basil
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon chopped fresh mint

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with aluminum foil. Spray the foil with olive oil cooking spray.
  • Spread pieces of butter into the baking sheet and lay cucumber spears over the butter. Top with slices of sweet onion and scatter basil, parsley, cilantro, and mint over the top. Spray the vegetables again with olive oil cooking spray.
  • Roast cucumber mixture in the preheated oven until cucumber spears begin to soften, about 10 minutes. Turn the cucumbers and onion slices over and return to oven; roast until cucumbers are tender, 15 to 20 more minutes.
