Yood Family Sauteed Cucumbers

This is a family recipe that Sara and her brothers fought over constantly when their mom would make it. Many people don't know that you can cook cucumbers, but you can and they are delicious!

Ingredients:
2 large or 6 small cucumbers, peeled and seeded
1 tbsp butter
2 tbsp chopped fresh dill, or 3/4 tbsp dried dill
salt
pepper

1. Cut the cucumbers once lengthwise. Cut the cucumbers into 1/2-inch thick slices width-wise. Put the cucumbers in a colander and sprinkle with salt. Let sit for 20 minutes to drain some of the water out of the cucumbers.
2. Melt butter in a large sautee pan. Add the cucumbers and dill, and sautee for 5 minutes, until warm and slightly tender. Season with pepper, and serve.
