This classic Greek sauce is an irreplaceable addition to many Greek dishes. Served cold, it can amplify and transform the flavor of grilled meats, fish, falafel, wraps, and potatoes.

  • 300 g Greek yogurt
  • 1 cucumber
  • 4-6 garlic cloves (grated)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp chopped or dried mint
  • 2 tsp of dill
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste

Peel the cucumber, cut it length ways in half, and de-seed using a teaspoon, then grate

Drain the grated cucumber by putting it into a strainer, sprinkling with a teaspoon of salt and setting a heavy bowl over it for 1 hour, or until water stops dripping

Afterwards, combine all of the ingredients, mixing them thoroughly

Refrigerate the dip for at least 1 hour prior to serving

Enjoy!
