Lebanese Yogurt and Cucumber Salad

Fresh mint and garlic flavor the yogurt dressing for these sliced cucumbers. This is a refreshing salad to make when cucumbers are at their best.

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups plain yogurt
  • 12 fresh mint leaves
  • 2 cloves garlic, peeled
  • salt, to taste
  • 2 or 3 cucumbers, peeled and thinly sliced

    Instructions:

    Drain the yogurt in a cheesecloth-lined colander for several hours, discarding the liquid that has collected. Place the mint and garlic together in a salad bowl and crush with a little salt. Add the drained yogurt and cucumbers. Mix and chill before serving.
