Step 1

Preparation:

To make the salad, combine the cucumbers, onion, and peppers in a medium mixing bowl, then add the salt and sugar. Toss the mixture until the vegetables are well coated, and allow it to sit for 15–20 minutes.

Transfer the cucumber mixture to a colander and drain, shaking off any excess liquid.

To make the dressing, mix the yogurt, vinegar, dill, salt, pepper, and garlic powder together well in a medium mixing bowl.

Add the cucumber mixture to the dressing and toss well to coat. Refrigerate for at least 30–45 minutes before serving. Garnish with the additional dill.
