Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Begin by dicing the English cucumbers into small, bite-sized pieces. Place them in a colander, sprinkle with salt, and let them sit for about 15 minutes.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine plain yogurt, crumbled feta cheese, fresh herbs of your choice, lemon zest, lemon juice, and black pepper. Stir well until everything is fully blended and creamy.
  3. After the cucumbers have drained, pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Gently fold the cucumbers into the yogurt mixture.
  4. Lightly toast your bread until golden brown. On one slice of bread, divide the fresh sprouts and spread a generous amount of the cucumber mixture over the top. Add onion slices, then top with another slice of bread.
  5. Assemble your sandwiches just before serving and enjoy them immediately.
