Garlic salt to taste (less of this)

Grate the cucumber, mix into the yogurt, along with the garlic and lemon. For best results, let sit overnight in the fridge. I prefer mine to be heavy on the cucumber, then lemon, then garlic being the undertone. You have to taste it and adjust it to your own liking.

I can't do fresh garlic, or a lot of it, but again use whatever form you want. I also prefer lemon oil as it's stronger, so I can use less of it...I find that fresh lemon juice waters it down too much for my liking.

Serve with pita of your choice (I like the whole wheat pita but YMMV) that has been warmed in the microwave or toaster oven, or if you have the time, grilled. Cut into quarters.
That's a lot of sauce! How long does it last in the fridge?
