Cucumber som tam – weighed version
Cucumber som tam – weighed version.
Servings in this printout: 4
Ingredients
- 500 g edible cucumber after removing the seed core
- 150 g tomato
- 100 g cooked drained green beans
- 30 g whole unsalted roasted peanuts
- 3.5 g peeled fresh garlic
- 5 g fresh chilli
- 30 g lime juice
- 15 g fish sauce, generic AFCD composition proxy
- 4 g Foodin erythritol
- salt to taste
Method
- Weigh all listed edible ingredients. Do not add unlisted oil or side dishes.
- Remove the cucumber seed core, then weigh 500 g edible cucumber. Weigh 100 g already cooked and drained green beans; do not use raw beans. Cut the tomato.
- Crush the garlic and chilli. Coarsely chop half the whole roasted peanuts; do not grind them into a paste. Add lime juice, fish sauce and 4 g Foodin erythritol.
- Combine all vegetables and dressing, then add the remaining peanuts. Consume all dressing and divide into four portions.

low GL
Confidence · Low Some values or assumptions in the calculation are uncertain.
The estimate combines ingredient carbohydrate and GI data with modeled assumptions. The calculation also uses comparison values from similar foods or food groups.
Estimate details and sources ↗
How was the estimate calculated?
The serving’s GL is calculated from ingredient data. Confidence describes the evidence behind the calculation. Your blood sugar response may vary.
- Value used in the model
- Comparison value
All available carbohydrate is included, with no small portions omitted. This is a modeled ingredient estimate, not a measured meal response. Biological uncertainty has not been quantified.

Notes
The GL is a modeled ingredient-sum estimate with low confidence, not a measured meal response. All available carbohydrate is included; no biological uncertainty interval is known. The photograph illustrates serving only; unlisted side dishes are excluded from the nutrition and GL estimates.
Use whole roasted peanuts, coarsely chopped, not peanut butter or flour. The fish sauce uses generic AFCD composition, not a verified brand label. Erythritol is counted once in total carbohydrate and adds no net carbohydrate.
