4   Eight inch cucumbers - peeled
2 tablespoons 30mlBalsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon 5mlSalt
1 teaspoon 5mlSugar
4 tablespoons 60mlGreen onions - chopped
1/4   Butter or margarine

Cut cucumbers in half lengthwise and scrape out the seeds with a spoon. Cut each half into 4 strips and each strip into 2 inch pieces. Place in a glass bowl and sprinkle with vinegar, salt and sugar; toss.

Marinate at least 2 hours in refrigerator (longer time for more sour taste). Drain and pat dry with towel. Saute onions in butter until tender, but not brown.
