Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 1 clove Garlic clove
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Peel the cucumber and grate it using a box grater or food processor.
Place the grated cucumber in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much excess water as possible. This step is important to avoid a watery dip.
Mince the garlic clove and chop the fresh dill and parsley finely.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, squeezed cucumber, minced garlic, chopped dill, and parsley.
Add the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to the bowl.
Stir all the ingredients together until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste if needed.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve chilled with fresh vegetables, crackers, or pita chips.
