Ingredients

  • 3 cups Greek yogurt (yiaourti sakoulas)
  • 2 lbs cucumbers (about 3 medium, peeled and chopped finely)
  • 3 teaspoons minced fresh garlic (if you like a strong garlic taste add in more!)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup chopped of fresh mint
  • fresh ground black pepper (to taste)

Method

  • Put the finely chopped cucumbers in a sieve and press out as much excess liquid as possible.
  • In a large bowl mix the minced garlic with the salt into a paste.
  • Add in the Greek yogurt (or strained yogurt) with garlic/salt paste, add to the drained cucumbers, mint, olive oil, more salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cover and chill for a minimum of 2 hours before serving (you won't be able to keep you spoon out of the bowl lol!).
