Tzatziki Sauce

Prep Time 30 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings 2 cups

Ingredients

  • 2 cups of full fat greek yogurt
  • 1 whole english cucumber
  • 1 lemon
  • 4 cloves of garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp of chopped dill
  • 2 tbsp of olive oil
  • salt/pepper

Instructions

  • Using a grater, grate one whole english cucumber, sprinkle with a tsp of salt, toss and then place in a colander and set aside for 20-30 minutes (you want the extra liquid from the cucumber to drain before adding to the yogurt. The salt will help. It doesn't have to be completely dry, you just don't want all of the excess liquid. You can give the cucumbers a "gentle" press to help guide some of the moisture out as well).
  • Meanwhile, in a bowl add the greek yogurt, garlic, the zest and juice of one lemon, dill, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add drained cucumbers. Gently mix together.
  • Transfer to a serving bowl and drizzle with olive oil and garnish with additional dill.
  • Serve and enjoy!
