A Spanish cold soup made with cucumbers, Greek yogurt and green chili, extremely creamy and oh so delicious!
Prep Time 10 minutes
Course Savoury
Cuisine Spanish-Inspired

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ large English cucumber
  • 1 lime juiced
  • ½ cup parsley
  • 2 large garlic cloves
  • 1 large shallot
  • green chilli
  • 200 g Greek yoghurt
  • 165 g sour cream
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Prepare all your ingredients: wash and cut the cucumbers, juice the lime, peel the garlic and chop the shallot and green chili.
  • Place all the prepped ingredients in a high-powered blender and blend everything.
  • Now add the Greek yogurt, sour cream, olive oil, salt and pepper and blend again.
  • You can either serve it immediately or let it cool down in the fridge for a couple of hours.
  • When serving, garnish with extra cucumber, green chili and sour cream, plus a drizzle of olive oil.

Notes

  • To get the desired consistency, you might decide to add extra or less Greek yogurt and sour cream. I would recommend starting low if you feel like they might be a bit much for you;
  • The salt and black pepper also need to be adjusted according to taste, so do taste as you go before you refrigerate.
