Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon Fresh mint
- 1 clove Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Wash and peel the cucumber. Cut it in half lengthwise and use a spoon to scoop out the seeds.
Grate the cucumber using a box grater, then place the grated cucumber into a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible to avoid a watery dip.
Finely chop the dill, parsley, and mint. Mince the garlic clove as finely as possible.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, chopped herbs, minced garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil.
Add the salt and black pepper to the bowl and stir everything together until thoroughly combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Add more lemon juice, salt, or pepper to your liking.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled with fresh vegetables, pita bread, crackers, or use as a sandwich spread.
