Description

This is not your average salad. It’s cold, creamy, tangy, and smells like garlic met a garden. Grandma served this as a side, but let’s be real – we all secretly treated it like the main dish when the meat ran out. It cools you down, wakes you up, and somehow disappears from the bowl faster than you expected.

Ingredients

  • πŸ₯’ 2 medium cucumbers (about 500 g / 1.1 lb), thinly sliced
  • πŸ§„ 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
  • πŸ₯£ 250 ml (1 cup) plain yogurt
  • πŸ«’ 1 tbsp olive oil
  • πŸ‹ 1 tsp lemon juice or vinegar
  • πŸ§‚ Salt, to taste
  • 🌿 Fresh dill or parsley, chopped (optional)

Advice

If your cucumbers are watery, salt them lightly first and let them sit for 10 min. Then drain – your salad will be creamier, not soggy.

Status
