Tzatziki Sauce
(pronounced zad-ZEE-kee). This Greek yogurt-based sauce is incredibly simple to make and versatile. It is traditionally served with souvlaki and gyros, but we think there are many more possibilities beyond these dishes
Servings 4 people
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups plain yogurt (preferably the whole-milk variety, but any type will work)
- ½ cucumber large, grated with a cheese grater
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon dill fresh, finely chopped (or 1 teaspoon of dried dill)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Can be served immediately, but it is even better if you let it sit for a few hours or overnight before serving.
