Tzatziki Sauce

 

Ingredients

• 1 cup Greek yogurt
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice (to taste)
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1/3 English cucumber
• 1 tablespoon fresh dill or mint, chopped
• salt for salting the cucumber
• salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Grate the cucumbers. Salt them, let them drain, then rinse and pat dry. Mix all ingredients. Flavor will develop in the fridge. If you prefer a smooth texture, you can blend this in a food processor.

Notes:

Greek yogurt is used because of its thick texture. It keeps the sauce from being too runny.
