- Drizzle in olive oil and red wine vinegar. Mix well
- Add ground black pepper and salt
- Add chopped mint leaves or dill leaves
- Chill for 15-20 minutes. Serve this as a dip. Cool and refreshing!
Use chilled yogurt and cucumber so the ingredients are all cool and chilling the dip afterward for a long time will not be necessary
Mix the dip just 15-20 minutes before serving. Cucumber stays crunchy and does not let out a lot of water and make the dip turn watery
Adjust seasoning as you want
