Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Cucumber
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons White vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Peel the cucumbers and slice them into thin rounds. If desired, you can also cut the slices in half for a different texture.
In a large bowl, combine the sliced cucumbers with a pinch of salt and let them sit for about 5-10 minutes to release any excess moisture.
In a small bowl, mince the garlic cloves finely.
Combine the minced garlic, Greek yogurt, white vinegar, and olive oil in the small bowl. Whisk them together until well blended.
Finely chop the fresh dill and add it to the yogurt mixture, stirring to distribute evenly.
Drain any excess liquid from the cucumbers and gently pat them dry with a paper towel.
Add the cucumbers into the bowl with the yogurt dressing and toss to coat them thoroughly.
Season the salad with salt and pepper to taste, tossing once more to ensure even distribution of the seasoning.
Refrigerate the salad for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled as a refreshing side dish or light entrée.
