Instructions

  • Once the cucumber is grated, drain the excess juices by squeezing it in your hands by using a fine mesh sieve over a bowl or the sink.
    1/2 cup fresh cucumber, grated
  • Add the drained grated cucumber to a bowl along with the rest of the ingredients for the tzatziki sauce.
    1 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1/3 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped, 1 Tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped, 4 garlic cloves, minced, 1 Tbsp lemon juice, 1/2 Tbsp olive oil, ½ tsp salt, pinch ground black pepper
  • Mix until well combined and then let it rest for a couple minutes to allow the flavors to blend. Taste the sauce and adjust the salt and garlic to desired taste.
  • Serve immediately or cover and let it chill in the fridge until ready for use. (Sauce can last in the fridge for 4-5 days.)
