Tzatziki

Photobucket

Tzatziki is a traditional greek recipe. Some call it salad (cucumbers with yoghurt) others call it yoghurt dip, and most people just by its greek name. Whatever you name it, it's very simple to make and incredible delicious!

I used:

- 200g greek yoghurt
-1 cucumber (medium)
-2-3 garlic cloves
-1 spoon olive oil
-1 tsp lemon juice
-chopped dill
-salt, pepper

I grated the cucumber. Because it is so waterish, you can sqeeze it, either in a kitchen towel or by hand .

Then I mixed the yoghurt, the grated cucumber the dill and the garlic in a bowl.

I added oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper and put it in the fridge, for around an hour before serving, so all the aromas mix together.

You can serve it cold, on toast, with garlic bread, as a side dish, as an appetizer or in any other way.. it's delicious!
