I could really do with some recipe ideas for cucumbers as I am picking about 6 every visit! I have a fridge drawer full, and now this bowl! HELP! ;D

They're good in stirfries if you like those.
I put thickly sliced cucumber into chana dal EJ (no.1 son fishes it out again but that's another story >:( ;))
Those were well written up in last w/e's mag, Emma. Just wiped it off the disk!
I love them steamed - possibly with lemon sauce - with fish.
