This is a classic favorite for garlic lovers - Lo-fat too! Line two seives with cheesecloth. Peel & finely chop the English cucumber.

(could use a food processor) Squeeze out the fluid with your hands & place in one of the cheesecloth-lined seives to drain completely. Place the yogurt in the other cheesecloth-lined seive & drain for 2 to 4 hours.

Combine drained yogurt, cucumber, crushed garlic & mint. Mix well.

Refrigerate for 1 hour prior to serving.

Serve as an appetizer with pita bread chunks or on burgers or donairs.
