- 2 sprigs Basil
- 1 oz pickled red Bell pepper (drained)

With a peeler, shave cucumber lengthwise into 12-14 very thin slices.
Spread cucumber slices on work surface in a single layer and sprinkle with a little salt.
Rinse basil, shake dry and pluck leaves. Reserve some leaves for garnish and cut the rest into very thin strips.
