CHILLED YOGHURT AND CUCUMBER SOUP WITH MINT

Steps:

• First peel the cucumbers thinly with a potato peeler so as to leave some of the green skin on, then slice them.

Add a seasoning of salt and pepper and the lemon juice, then pour the soup into a tureen and if it seems to be a little too thick, thin it with some cold milk. Now stir in the chopped fresh mint, cover with foil or with a lid and chill very thoroughly for several hours before serving. To serve, ladle the soup into individual soup bowls and float a few thin slices of cucumber and a thin slice of lemon on each one.
