Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 cucumbers
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • Green onions, finely chopped
  • Fresh dill, chopped to taste
  • Lemon juice, from one lemon
  • 3-4 tablespoons of Greek yogurt

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Prepare the Cucumbers: Wash the cucumbers thoroughly. Slice them thinly and place the slices in a mixing bowl.
  2. Season: Sprinkle the teaspoon of salt over the sliced cucumbers. Mix well to ensure all slices are evenly coated. Let them rest for about 10 minutes to release some of their water content.
  3. Drain: After resting, squeeze out the excess liquid from the cucumbers to avoid a soggy salad.
  4. Add Herbs and Lemon: To the drained cucumber slices, add the finely chopped green onions and dill. Drizzle with lemon juice for a fresh, tangy flavor.
  5. Mix with Greek Yogurt: Add the Greek yogurt to the cucumber mixture. Stir everything together until well combined.
  6. Chill and Serve: For the best flavor, let the salad chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together nicely.
