Cucumber-Onion Salad

This is a simple but necessary side dish, as the cucumber and yogurt will help to cool down a spicy meal. It is a side dish, and about 2 tablespoons are enough per person.

1 large cucumber
1 small onion, diced
1/4 cup drained yogurt
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon crushed dried mint

Wash and peel 1 large cucumber. Dice into 1/16-inch pieces. Use up the whole cucumber.

Dice 1 small onion. Mix with cucumber in a dish.

Add drained yogurt, salt, and mint. Mix well, and place in refrigerator for 45 minutes before serving.
