• 1 clove Garlic
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 small Red onion

Directions

Step 1

Wash and dry the cucumbers. Slice them thinly into rounds using a sharp knife or a mandoline for even slices. Place the sliced cucumbers in a large bowl.

Finely chop the fresh dill and add it to the cucumber slices.

Peel and finely slice half a small red onion into thin strips. Add these to the cucumber mixture.

Step 6

In a separate small bowl, combine the vegan plain yogurt with the extra virgin olive oil. Mix well until smooth.

Add the yogurt and oil mixture to the cucumbers. Stir gently to coat the cucumber slices thoroughly.

Season the salad with salt and black pepper, mixing until everything is evenly distributed.

Step 9

Refrigerate the salad for approximately 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together before serving.

Step 10
