Preparation

Directions

1. Prepare the Cucumber

Grate the cucumber using a box grater and place it in a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out excess moisture to prevent the sauce from becoming watery.

2. Mix Ingredients

In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are blended.

3. Add Herbs

Chop the fresh dill or mint and fold it into the yogurt mixture. Adjust the seasoning with more salt if needed.

4. Chill

Cover the tzatziki and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

5. Serve

Serve chilled as a dip with pita bread or fresh vegetables, or as a sauce for grilled meats.
