For the tzatziki, wash and peel the cucumber, and coarsely grate it into a sieve. Sprinkle with a little salt to help the cucumber drain more quickly and let it stand for a while. Peel the garlic and press or chop it into a small bowl. Mix the yogurt with the garlic and add the grated cucumber. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of sugar and let it stand in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Wash the tomato, halve it, remove the stem, and thinly slice it. Peel the onion and slice it into fine strips. Cut or break the feta into small pieces. Preheat the oven to 200°C (grill setting). Brush the bread with a little olive oil and sprinkle with half of the feta. Top with the onion strips and tomato slices, sprinkle with the remaining feta, and season with a little salt and pepper. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake on the highest rack for about 4 minutes, until the feta is browned and slightly melted. Wash the arugula, drain in a sieve, and top the pita pizzas with it. Drizzle with a little olive oil, if desired. Serve with the tzatziki.
