Ingredients

4 servings
Cucumber1 large
Garlic2 cloves
Olive oil1 tbsp
Salt1/2 tsp

Method

1

Peel and halve the cucumber lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds with a spoon and discard. Grate the cucumber on a box grater or with a food processor.

2

Transfer grated cucumber to a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. Squeeze firmly to remove excess moisture (this prevents a watery dip).

3

Mince the garlic cloves finely. Chop the fresh dill and mint.

4

In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, squeezed cucumber, minced garlic, lemon juice, dill, and mint. Stir until well blended.

5

Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Transfer to a serving bowl.

6

Drizzle with olive oil and serve with pita bread, fresh vegetables, grilled proteins, or as a condiment.
