Last evening was a no-cook evening for me because we decided to dine at our favorite pizza center close to our house. So I spent most of the evening delightfully scrolling through magazines and books and it was a welcome change. Not that I could do it everyday.
Recently I made another simple Greek dish which is serves as a healthy dip to grills and fried stuff. Simple yet special with the addition of the yogurt and cucumber. Serve this up and watch it disappear !
Creamy, savory – a perfect side dish to a lighten a heavy meal. Warm and homey , the dill leaves with the cucumbers - they are just meant to go together !
So the recipe for the Tzatziki Sauce or Dip is as follows:
INGREDIENTS:
3 cups yogurt
1 large cucumber, peeled, seeded, and diced
3 tablespoons dill, chopped
3 cloves garlic, diced
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon salt
HOW TO MAKE:
1) In a mixing bowl, combine the cucumbers with the yogurt, dill, garlic, oil, and lemon zest.
2) Mix well and refrigerate for at least an hour for the flavors to come together.
3) Serve with warm pita bread, as part of a falafel sandwich or grills.
