Method :

Peel and slice the cucumber lengthwise.
Discard the cucumber seeds (it will release too much water), and dice.
Mix the yogurt, cucumber, crushed garlic (if using), dry mint, and salt.
Serve cold, as an accompaniment to barbecued meats, or over rice, or as a dipping, as simply as is for a cooling appetizer
