Tzatziki

 
 

Tzatziki

Ingredients:

  • ½ large cucumber, peeled and grated

  • 1 ½ cups unsweetened Greek yoghurt

  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint and/or dill

  • Juice of ½ lemon (approx. 1 tbsp)

  • 1  clove garlic, very finely chopped or pressed

  • Salt and black pepper

 How to make:

  1. Firstly, remove the excess liquid from the grated cucumber. Either squeeze it in a clear teatowel, squeeze over a sieve with your hands or put it into a few sheets of paper towel and squeeze the liquid out that way.

  2. Place the yoghurt, olive oil, herbs, lemon juice, and garlic into a bowl. Add the grated cucumber, stir, and season to taste. Add more herbs or lemon if needed.

  3. Serve tzatziki straight away or chill, if you need it later on.
