Grate whole cucumber. Place in a big bowl.
Put about 5 heaped tablespoons of yoghurt on paper towelling to soak up excess moisture. Add to the big bowl.
Squish 3 garlics (with a garlic press) into the bowl.
Add the juice of one lemon.
Add a pinch of salt.
Add a teaspoon of white pepper (can use black pepper, white pepper just 'hides' in teh white colour of the yoghurt more.
Stir. Taste. Change/add any ingredients till you are satisfied with the outcome. Eat up.

This recipe makes a lot, so adjust the receipe to suit the feed. :)
It lasts for a few days. Is great in sandwiches, on plain biscuit, as a dip for chips, with vegetable sticks such as carrot and celery.
