Οδηγίες

Prepare 1 packed cup (6 oz) cucumber, grated with the large holes of a box grater. Keep the peel on.

Drain the cucumber by squeezing out its liquid with your hands.

You can do that over a plate or bowl. Discard the liquid.

To a medium bowl, add the grated and squeezed cucumber, 1 cup Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (finely chopped), 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, 1 clove garlic (finely grated), and ½ teaspoon salt.

Stir well with a spoon, taste, adjust for salt and lemon juice, and store in the fridge until serving time.

Garnish with mint leaves or dill and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil before serving.
