This cucumber dip is a very refreshing starter, ideal to accompany toast, nachos and crudités, and even to garnish tacos, burritos, wraps and sandwiches.
Its fresh and smooth flavor is mixed with the unctuousness of the vegetable yoghurt, the irresistible spicy notes provided by the condiments and the unmistakable aroma of fresh basil, resulting in a combination of flavors very rich, delicate and sparkling.

Ingredients
- 200 gr. cucumber
- 1/4 onion
- 1/2 tomato
- 50 gr. natural soy yogurt without sweetening
- 1 pinch of cayenne chilli (powdered)
- 1 teaspoon fresh basil
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon cumin (ground)
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper (ground)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Peel, wash and chop the cucumber into small pieces, eliminating the seeds. We wash and chop the onion and tomato in the same way. We throw everything together in a bowl and stir.
- We wash and chop the basil also and add it to the bowl. We add salt, spices and lemon and stir well again.
- We add the vegetable yogurt and mix again, When we have all the ingredients perfectly integrated, we serve.
Notes
- This dip is also incredibly good replacing the yogurt with avocado, which provides creaminess and a different flavor but equally delicious.
