Slice the cucumber lengthways into long thin strips using a mandoline. I set the thickness to 0.1 mm.
1 cucumber
Blend the cheese, garlic, yoghurt, mint and pepper until you have an almost smooth paste. I used the brilliant Optimum Nutri Force Extractor*.
100 g feta cheese, 1 clove garlic, 2 tbsp natural yoghurt, 1 sprig fresh mint, good grinding of black pepper
Finely snip in the chives and stir.
1 handful chives
Thinly spread each strip with some of the spread - it's quite salty and flavoursome, so you don't need much.
Roll up and secure with a cocktail stick. You don't want to roll too loosely, but not too tightly either or the spread will be squeezed out.

Notes
The number you make will depend on the size of your cucumber. Small to medium cucumbers are ideal as they're less seedy. Persian cucumbers are particularly good.Please note: calories and other nutritional information are per serving. They’re approximate and will depend on exact ingredients used.
