Preparation

  1. Peel cucumbers, cut them in half lengthwise, scrape out the seeds and cut the halves crosswise into 1/8-inch slices. Put slices in a bowl and mix with salt. Allow to stand 10 minutes. Empty slices into a colander and press them to remove excess moisture.
  2. Combine cucumber slices with yogurt, garlic and coriander. Season to taste with salt and serve as a side dish with the tabbouleh.
