Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large English cucumber
- 2 ripe Avocado
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 cup Vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 8 large Fresh mint leaves
- 1 clove Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 3 medium Ice cubes
Instructions
Peel the English cucumbers, slice them lengthwise, and scoop out the seeds using a spoon. Chop them into smaller pieces and set aside.
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop out the flesh using a spoon.
In a blender or food processor, combine the chopped cucumber, avocado flesh, Greek yogurt, vegetable broth, lemon juice, fresh mint leaves, and garlic clove.
Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy. If the consistency is too thick, add a bit more vegetable broth, 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.
Season the soup with salt and black pepper to taste. Blend again briefly to incorporate the seasoning.
Add the ice cubes to the blender and blend until the soup is chilled and silky smooth.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. If desired, drizzle olive oil on top for a touch of richness.
Serve immediately in chilled bowls or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving. Garnish with additional mint leaves or a thin cucumber slice for an elegant presentation.
