Preparation method

Ingredients overview

300 g cucumber
200 g plain Greek yogurt
1 peeled garlic clove
1 tablespoon chopped dill
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon salt

Cut the peeled garlic clove in half lengthwise, remove and discard the germ from the center, then finely chop the garlic.

Cut off both ends of the cucumber and slice it in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds with a spoon and coarsely grate the cucumber. Place the grated cucumber in a colander, and set the colander over a bowl. Salt the cucumber, mix it, and let it sit for 10 minutes. During this time, water will drain from the cucumber.

Squeeze out the remaining water from the cucumber, then mix it in a bowl with yogurt, garlic, dill, lemon juice, and olive oil. Refrigerate for 2 hours to chill. Stir before serving.
