Garlic · minced1 tbsp
Dill · finely chopped2 tsp
Lemon3 tsp
White wine vinegar2 tsp

Instructions

Peel the cucumber, halve it lengthwise, remove the seeds and grate it. Put it in a strainer over a bowl, sprinkle with the salt and leave it for a couple of hours to draw out the water.
Strain the Greek yogurt in a stainless steel strainer to remove the excess liquid.
Once the cucumber has drained, squeeze out the remaining water using cheesecloth or a potato ricer.
In a large bowl, combine the strained yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, dill, lemon juice, vinegar, salt, pepper, olive oil and lemon zest. Mix thoroughly.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours so the flavors meld.
Serve chilled.
