Description
When it comes to serving your homemade tzatziki, many options are available. It’s delicious when paired with falafel wraps or as a Greek salad platter. It also makes an excellent dip for pita chips or vegetable crudités such as carrots and celery sticks. If you’re feeling creative, you could use it as a replacement for mayonnaise in sandwiches or burgers!
Ingredients
1 English cucumber (unpeeled)
1 1/2 cup of plain Greek yogurt (or use dairy free)
1–2 cloves of garlic, minced
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp white wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1–2 teaspoons minced fresh dill
Instructions
Shred the cucumber and squeeze the liquid into a thick paper towel or kitchen towel.
Mix all the ingredients except the dill.
Let sit for at least about an hour; add the dill, and mix.
Notes
Start with 1 clove of garlic and add more if you like the sharp flavor of the garlic.
I use a garlic press or a microplane, to get the perfect consistency of minced garlic.
For dairy-free options: You can use dairy-free plain Greek yogurt.
For candida-free options: You can use dairy-free plain almond milk Greek yogurt.
