Mix the base: In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup Greek yogurt, 2 cloves garlic (grated), 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar, and ½ teaspoon salt. Stir well until creamy and smooth.
Grate and drain the cucumber: Grate 1 cucumber with the large holes of a box grater and squeeze out as much water as you can.
Add cucumber and dill: Fold the grated cucumber and 2 tablespoons fresh dill into the yogurt base. Mix until fully combined.Optional: Stir in ⅓ cup crumbled feta for added texture and a pop of salty flavor.
Chill & Serve: Let it rest in the fridge for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to develop. The garlic will mellow and the whole thing becomes more cohesive.Drizzle with a little more olive oil before serving. Optional: garnish with a sprig of dill or a few Kalamata olives.
