Equipment

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups plain Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon white vinegar
2 garlic cloves minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon fresh dill chopped
1/2 large cucumber unpeeled, grated, and squeezed to drain excess liquid

Instructions

In a medium sized bowl stir together the yogurt, olive oil, vinegar, garlic and salt. Cover and refrigerate overnight. (This will help the flavors develop!)
Place the grated cucumber between several paper towels and wring out the excess liquid over a sink. After doing that, stir the grated cucumber and fresh dill into the sauce. Serve chilled.
You can make this in advance. Once made cover and store in the fridge for 3-4 days.

Notes

If crunched for time you can mix all of the ingredients together and serve the same day you make it. However, letting the ingredients meld overnight does wonders!
