  • 1 cucumber
  • 350 g whole Greek yogurt
  • 1 C. tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 C. lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp. coffee dill or mint according to your tastes
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • salt, freshly ground pepper


PREPARATION:

Put the slices in a colander and add salt on top. Leave on for at least 20 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with clear water.
