A refreshing and creamy dip perfect for any occasion.
Grate the cucumber and place it in a strainer to remove excess liquid.
Squeezing the grated cucumber helps to avoid a watery dip.
In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, chopped mint, olive oil, and lemon juice.
Mix gently to maintain a creamy texture.
Season the mixture with salt and stir well to combine.
Taste and adjust the salt to your preference.
Cover and refrigerate the dip for at least 1 hour before serving.
Chilling allows the flavors to meld together.
Serve the dip with pita bread or fresh vegetables.
Garnish with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprig of mint for presentation.
