This recipe also works
nicely with dill or parsley.
1 medium cucumber, peeled if desired
Salt and black pepper to taste
1 cup plain yogurt
2 teaspoons minced onion, shallot, or scallion
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 tablespoons minced fresh mint leaves
Cut the cucumber in half lengthwise and scoop out
the seeds. Chop it into 1/2-inch dice and combine
it with all remaining ingredients. Check seasoning
and serve, or refrigerate until ready to use, but
use within a few hours. Makes about 2 cups.
