Eat | Cucumber Roll with Feta

Ingredients

  • 2 English Cucumbers
  • 6 ounces Feta Cheese, crumbled
  • 3 tablespoons Plain Greek Yogurt
  • 2 1/2 - 3 1/2 tablespoons finely diced Sun-Dried Tomatoes
  • 8 - 12 pitted Kalamata Olives, finely diced
  • 1/2 tablespoon roughly chopped Fresh Dill
  • 2 teaspoons Fresh Lemon Juice
  • Salt and Black Pepper, to taste
  • Dill Sprigs, for garnish

Instructions

Slice the Cucumber Strips

  1. Using a mandoline set at the 2mm thick setting, slice the cucumbers longways into thin strips.
  2. Lay the cucumbers on top of a paper towel lined cutting board or baking sheet, then add another paper towel on top. Press to soak up the excess moisture.
  3. Let sit on the paper towels while you prepare the filling.

Make the Cucumber Roll Up Filling

  1. Add the feta to a medium bowl, then mash with a fork. Add the Greek yogurt, and continue to mash and stir the feta and yogurt until well mixed.
  2. Then, add in the sundried tomatoes, kalamata olives, fresh dill, and lemon juice. Stir well to combine.
  3. Season to taste with salt and black pepper

Assembling the Cucumber Roll Ups

  1. Working with one cucumber strip at a time, spread a small amount (about a tablespoon) of filling over the length of the cucumber strip.
  2. After that, starting at one end, roll the cucumber strips into a spiral. Secure with a toothpick if needed.
  3. Repeat with remaining strips until all of the filling has been used. If desired, garnish the top of each cucumber roll up with a sprig of fresh dill
  4. If not serving immediately, chill until ready to serve.
