Creamy Cucumber Yogurt Salad Recipe

A no-cook salad made with grated cucumber, garlic, olive oil, yogurt, crushed black pepper, and salt.
Keep it uncomplicated in the kitchen, yet bold, tasty, and nutritious. Gone are the days when people spent hours cooking, except for specific occasions or individuals. For the rest of us, we want meals that are easy to put together. Wouldn’t you agree? Especially with takeaways and eating out trending. Yet, nothing comes close to the goodness of home-cooked meals.

Take the creamy carrot yogurt salad, for example. For Asians, it’s a perfect accompaniment to rice meals; for others, it can be an appetizer - or anything you like! Today, it’s no ordinary cucumber yogurt salad. It’s a Turkish version, and guess what? I’ve got an Indian version for you too. Neither requires cooking - just prep the ingredients, toss them together, and you’ve got a creamy, luscious cucumber yogurt salad ready.
