  1. 1

    Wash the cucumber and shred it. Either way, the end result should have the same consistency as a storebought bag of shredded carrot.

  2. 2

    Blend the yogurt with the lemon juice and mix well. Dilute with water so the mixture is runny, about the same consistency as heavy cream.

  3. 3

    Stir the spices in well. Stir in the shredded cucumber.
