Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large cucumbers
- 100 grams feta cheese
- 50 grams cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 pieces cherry tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
Instructions
Wash and dry the cucumbers. Cut each cucumber into 2-inch thick slices. Use a small spoon or melon baller to scoop out the center of each slice, creating a shallow cup. Be careful not to scoop all the way through.
In a mixing bowl, combine the feta cheese, cream cheese, lemon juice, olive oil, fresh dill, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until the filling is smooth and creamy.
Carefully spoon or pipe the feta mixture into each cucumber cup, filling them generously.
Slice the cherry tomatoes into halves and place one on top of each stuffed cucumber cup as a garnish.
Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the cucumber cups for a finishing touch.
Arrange the stuffed cucumber cups on a platter and serve immediately as a refreshing appetizer or side dish.
