Ingredients:

Serving

3 cups plain yogurt ( do not use low-fat or nonfat)
1 english hothouse cucumber (about 16 oz), peeled , halved lengthwise, seeded
3 tbsp finely chopped fresh dill
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 large tomato, quartered, seeded, thinly sliced

Directions:

Place strainer over large bowl. Line strainer with 3 layers of cheesecloth. Spoon yogurt into cheesecloth-lined strainer; let stand at room temperature to drain 3 hours (liquid will drain out and yogurt will thicken). Transfer yogurt to medium bowl; discard liquid.
Meanwhile, coarsely grate cucumber. Place in another strainer; let stand at room temperature until most of liquid drains out, about 3 hours. Discard liquid. Squeeze excess moisture from cucumber.
Mix cucumber, dill and garlic into yogurt. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
Mix tomato into yogurt. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
