Steps:
- Cut up the cucumber into very small pieces. Sprinkle them with a little salt
- and let them sit for a few minutes. This will draw out excess moisture.
- Rinse them (but don't soak them) to get off the salt. Crush the garlic and
- mix it with the yogurt. If you like your sauce thick, drain in through a
- cheese cloth and use only the thick stuff that remains. Finally, mix in the
- cucumber. I like to add a lot of pepper and, at the last minute, a little
- lemon juice.

Steps:

- When smooth and light, add salt and pepper to taste.
- Chill in a covered bowl before using.
- Variation: Replace bread with 1/2 cup ground almonds or walnuts, or use 1 1/2 cups of ground almonds or walnuts instead of the potatoes and bread.
- Blender method: Put all ingredients in a blender and blend at moderate speed until ingredients are pulverised. Sure beats all that pounding!
- Increase speed for a few seconds until light and smooth. Do not blend for too long for the mixture heats and the oil separates.
