Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large Cucumber
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 clove Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
Instructions
Peel the cucumber and grate it using the large holes of a box grater. Place the grated cucumber into a clean kitchen towel, wrap it tightly, and squeeze out as much liquid as you can.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and sour cream until smooth.
Finely chop the fresh dill and mince the garlic clove, then add them to the yogurt mixture.
Stir in the grated cucumber, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and olive oil. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Taste the dip and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or lemon juice if needed.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
When ready to serve, give the dip a quick stir and transfer it to a serving dish. Garnish with an extra sprinkle of dill or a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.
Serve chilled with sliced vegetables, crackers, or pita bread.
