QuantityIngredient
1mediumCucumber, peeled and finely chopped
½pint(1 Cup) thick yogurt (you may want to drain U.S. yogurt in cheesecloth or strainer overnight to achieve the Greek thickness) can also use \"blender\" sour cream made with cottage cheese
1tablespoonOlive oil
1teaspoonVinegar
1Clove garlic
1teaspoonChopped dill weed (optional)

Directions

Mix together and chill for at least 1 hour. Serve as a dip, with fried fish, or with fried eggplant or fried zucchini. Excellent with crudites. If you run whole thing through blender it makes a delicious cold soup. It is also great as a virtually non-fat salad dressing.
