Servings: 2 cups
Calories: 774.9kcal
- 1 cup homemade mayonnaise (or vegan mayo for a vegan option)
- ¼ cup fresh cucumber
- 3 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp fresh mint
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- ¼ tsp dill, dried or fresh (I prefer fresh dill)
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Peel and remove the seeds from the cucumber. The center of the cucumber tends to be watery and will thin down the sauce. After peeling and deseeding, finely chop the cucumber and place in a bowl.
If using fresh dill, finely chop with the mint and place in the bowl with the cucumber.
Place the remaining ingredients in the bowl and mix well. Taste and season with more salt to your liking.
Cover and place in the refrigerator for one hour before serving to allow the flavors to marinate. Serve with chicken, fresh vegetables, or another favorite dish.
