Sesame Cucumber Salad

This is a very simple and refreshing cucumber salad with a slightly creamy dressing from the mix of tahini (sesame paste) and sesame oil. It's a great one to have with any dark, strongly flavoured dishes such as soy sauce chicken or red braised pork as the mild fresh flavours help to balance all the rich, savoury tastes in the main course.
