Ingredients

  • 250 g pasta, uncooked weight
  • 1 large cucumber - or 1 1/2 smaller ones
  • 3 spring onions, finely sliced
  • 2 tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped (optional)
  • 400 g Greek yogurt
  • 2-3 cloves garlic, grated or crushed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Cook the pasta according to the packet instructions, then rinse it in plenty of cold water. Drain well and leave it to dry in a sieve.
  • Slice the cucumber, not too thick and not too thin - the slices should keep a good bite.
    If the cucumber is thick and very watery around the seeds, I recommend halving it lengthways, scraping out the seeds and then slicing it.
  • Mix the Greek yogurt with the lemon juice, olive oil, garlic and dill, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Toss the cucumber, spring onions and pasta in the dressing, leave it to stand for a moment and season again with salt and pepper.
  • Top with extra spring onion and dill, and crumbled feta if you like.
