Ingredients
  

  • 1 large English seedless cucumber, seeded and diced
  • 2 scallions, roughly sliced
  • 1 small garlic
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup fresh dill, extra for garnishing
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, extra for garnishing
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper, garnishing
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp vinegar

Equipment

  • 1 blender or food processor

Method
 

  1. To start, slice cucumber in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds with a spoon or sometimes I have taken a sharp paring knife and carefully outlined the outer area where the seeds are and then scooped it out with a small spoon. I found it easier that way. Then slice the cucumbers into chunks.
  2. Using a high speed blender or food processor, add the cucumber, scallions, garlic, sour cream, dill, parsley, salt and olive oil. Blend until smooth.
  3. Transfer to an air tight container and place into the refrigerator for 1-2 hours to chill.
  4. Once chilled, garnish with sliced cucumbers, dill and freshly ground pepper. Serve with crusty European bread. Enjoy!
