A beautifully refreshing summer salad to enjoy at your next grill party or simply alongside some roasted chicken or burgers. It's ridiculously quick and easy to throw together!
Zhoug is a popular Middle Eastern condiment that's made with cilantro, jalapeños, garlic, spices and olive oil. Basically, it's a spicy herb sauce, so if you ain't a fan of cilantro, use other herb sauce you like. If you can't find goat yoghurt, use plain Greek yoghurt instead.

- Place the baby cucumber in a bowl, season with salt and stand for 10-15 minutes. Gently squeeze out liquid from cucumber. Dry slightly on paper towel.
- Heat a lightly greased large chargrill pan or barbecue to high. Sear cucumber, cut- side down, in batches if necessary, for 2-3 minutes until edges begin to blacken. Do not cook them so they begin to break down. They should retain some crunch.
- Place the yoghurt, ground coriander and lemon juice in a bowl and combine to a smooth consistency.
- For the zhoug, place all the ingredients in a blender and whiz until finely chopped and combined. Season and set aside.
- Place the charred cucumber in a large bowl with one-quarter of the zhoug and toss well to combine. Spread the yoghurt on a serving dish and arrange the dressed cucumber on top. Sprinkle some crushed coriander and chopped herb over and drizzle with some olive oil. Serve with remaining zhoug alongside.

Interesting way to cook the cucumber! Looks absolutely delicious!
Hello,
Looks delicious, another great recipe! Take care, enjoy your day!
...this is totally new for me!
Anything that comes from goats scares the hell out of me LOL But I do like that plate with green leaves around the edge, very bucolic. Are all your plates always yours, or do you borrow them sometimes from friends und familie for photo shoots?
Your food always makes me hungry.

La ensalada de pepino nos gusta mucho, pero no tanto las salsas picantes y el cilantro, así que me basta con la salsa de yogur, sustituyendo el cilantro por perejil. Así nos encantará.
That looks so delicious!

This summer salad recipe is fantastic! The combination of charred baby cucumbers with zhoug and yogurt sounds incredibly refreshing and perfect for a grill party.
Se ve muy rico. Gracias por la receta. Te mando un beso.
Seems ok Angie.
I learn again. I had never heard of Zhoug. Now I know!
Ottimo piatto vegetariano!!
I do not think I have ever had cooked cucumbers before. I’m fascinated by the idea, and plan to try this over the summer. And, lucky for me, I have a wonderful source for goat yogurt! Thanks, Angie! David (C&L)
This sounds like a go-to summer salad! Love the mix of flavors. I'm planning to make a cucumber salad tomorrow.
