Grilled Cucumber Harissa Flatbread Recipe

Delicious cold, raw, slightly salted, dipped in soy and ginger, or just plopped in a drink; cucumbers are hugely versatile but as a grilled ingredient, they really impress. The contrasting textures after grilling gives a great mouthful and the pockets of water can become super smoky. It’s one of the more interesting vegetables to stick on a grill or in a smoker.
