;){kind=small} | cucumbers and mint-----I have lots of them so I have invented a soup that one can also use as a sauce for making fish or chicken. I am not great on porportions but here goes: |
|
|
||||
|
|
• | 2lbs yogurt drained for about 2 hours |
|
|
||||
|
|
• | 3 large cucumbers seeded , chopped and drained |
|
|
||||
|
|
• | two or more large handfulls of mint |
|
|
||||
|
|
• | large garlic clove cut up |
|
|
||||
|
|
• | 1 1/2 cups butter milk. I use SACO dry buttermilk and water (I always have the SACO in the frig) |
|
|
||||
|
|
;){kind=small} | Proceed as follows: |
|
|
||||
|
|
• | put the above in the cuisinart and blend. It will taste a bit flat. At that point I added a large squeeze of lemon, ground white pepper, some salt and a the meat of a WHOLE avocado. |
|
|
||||
|
|
• | Cuisinart again until smooth. |
|
|
||||
|
|
• | Garnish with mint |
|
|
||||
|
|
| Actually, it is excellent. Lynda |
