Cucumber-Yogurt Sauce Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

1

Prepare the Cucumber

Grate the cucumber using a box grater or food processor. If the cucumber is very watery, squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel.

2

Mix the Ingredients

In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and fresh dill. Stir until well mixed.

3

Season the Sauce

Add salt and black pepper to taste. Mix well to combine all flavors.

4

Chill and Serve

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled as a condiment for Greek Gyros or other dishes.
