Ingredients:

  • 4 greenhouse cucumbers, peeled and cut into medium cubes
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • Half a cantaloupe, peeled and cut into medium cubes
  • 1 serrano pepper, finely chopped
  • 1 stalk celery, finely chopped
  • 0.5 tbsp. rice vinegar
  • Leaves of 2 sprigs of mint, chopped
  • Leaves from half a bunch of cilantro, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons low-fat yogurt
  • 1 lemon
  • 1 tbsp. l. chopped parsley

Preparation:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the cucumbers, green onions, melon, pepper, celery, vinegar, and herbs. Drizzle with olive oil and salt (the cucumbers will release a lot of water). Place the bowl in a large pan of ice water for 30 minutes to cool the vegetables. In another bowl, combine the yogurt, 15 ml of olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice, and parsley. Refrigerate.
  2. Ladle the chilled soup into bowls and serve.
