Tzatziki
Tzatziki

A nice, fresh side dish. Delicious with gyros or any grilled dish. It keeps for quite a while in the refrigerator in a tightly sealed container.

Preparation

  1. Grate your cucumbers using a coarse grater and let them drain in a colander.
  2. Grate the garlic finely using a fine grater (a garlic press can also be used); you can add it directly to the bowl. Mix this with the yogurt, olive oil, salt, dill, and lemon.
  3. Squeeze the cucumbers by hand to remove as much moisture as possible. Then add the cucumbers to your yogurt mixture.
  4. Now gently mix everything together and serve it in a nice little bowl.
