Yogurt Salad (Jajeek) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup plain balkan yogurt (thick yogurt, though you could use regular if you wish to)
    1 cup cucumber, finely diced
    1 garlic clove, minced and crushed
    sea salt, to taste
    1 tablespoon mint, finely chopped (optional, but I do like to add it depending what it is served with) or 1 1/2 teaspoons dried mint, crushed (optional, but I do like to add it depending what it is served with)
Preparation
    In a bowl stir yogurt until creamy. Add finely diced cucumber, minced and crushed garlic, sea salt to taste, and optional mint. Stir well and refrigerate for about 30 minutes before serving but not too much longer or cucumbers will lose their crunch.
    Enjoy!
