While rice is cooking, roast the peanuts in a dry pan over low heat until golden and fragrant. Set aside.
5 minutes
Stir peanuts constantly to avoid burning.

Slice the cucumber thinly and arrange on serving plates. If using ikan bilis, dry-fry until crispy.
3 minutes
Cucumber adds freshness and crunch; keep slices chilled until serving.
