Thai Cucumber Salad

I usually double the recipe...

Ingredients
2 tablespoons sugar
3/4 cup boiling water
1/2 cup white vinegar
3 cups, peeled thinly sliced cucumber (works fine leaving the peel on seedless cukes)
1/2 cup thinly sliced carrots
1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
2 tablespoons chopped red bell pepper (I usually add more)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 tsp peeled freshly grated ginger root
1 tsp minced jalapeno
1/2 tsp salt
1 glove garlic, crushed

Directions
Dissolve sugar in boiling water, add vinegar, cover and chill for two hours
Combine cucumber and other ingredients in a bowl, pour chilled vinegar mixture over it
