Preparation
Step 1
For the best texture, start by peeling and de-seeding the cucumber before grating. If desired, place the grated cucumber in a muslin cloth or clean tea towel and squeeze out as much liquid as possible to avoid a watery dip.
Step 2
In a bowl, mix together the yogurt, grated cucumber, lemon juice, and minced garlic. Finish with a drizzle of olive oil and a light sprinkle of chopped dill. Chill before serving for maximum flavor.
