Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Cucumber
- 2 cups Plain Greek yogurt (unsweetened)
- 1 medium Garlic clove
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 cups Water
- 4 pieces Ice cubes (optional)
Instructions
Peel the cucumbers, then slice them lengthwise and remove the seeds with a spoon. Chop the cucumbers into smaller chunks for easier blending.
Peel the garlic clove and mince it finely or use a garlic press.
In a blender or food processor, combine the chopped cucumber, plain Greek yogurt, minced garlic, fresh dill, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and water.
Blend until the mixture is completely smooth. If the soup is too thick, add a bit more water, one tablespoon at a time, to reach your desired consistency.
Taste the soup and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more salt or lemon juice for brightness.
For extra chill, blend in a few ice cubes until smooth, or refrigerate the soup for at least 1 hour before serving.
Serve the cucumber and yogurt soup in bowls, garnished with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of chopped dill if desired.
