Servings: 3 cups

Equipment

  • Fine mesh strainer
  • Bowl

Ingredients

  • 500 g (or 2 cups) greek yoghurt
  • ¾ cucumber
  • 50 g feta cheese crumbled
  • 2-5 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill finely chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Halve the cucumer, lengthways and scrape out the seeds with a spoon. Grate the cucumber.
  • Put the grated cucumber in a mesh strainer over a bowl. Sprinkle some salt on the cucumber and mix it in. Let it sit for a few hours or overnight, if you have time.
  • Squeeze the cucumber and put it on some kitchen roll to soak up any remaining moisture.
  • Add all of the ingredients into a large bowl and mix thoroughly. It's best to leave it in the fridge for an hour before eating to let the flavours develop.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

You can decide how garlicky you want to make it. For me, the more garlic the better!
