Tzatziki

Cool yogurt dip with cucumber, garlic and dill.

Ingredients · for 4 servings

• 500 g Greek yogurt
• 1 cucumber
• 2 cloves garlic
• Dill
• Olive oil

Instructions

1. Wash the cucumber and grate roughly with the skin; squeeze very firmly in a clean cloth until hardly any juice comes out.
2. Put the Greek yogurt into a bowl and stir smooth.
3. Grate the garlic finely, chop the dill and stir with the cucumber into the yogurt.
4. Season with salt and a splash of olive oil.
5. Chill covered for at least 30 min so the garlic and dill meld.
6. Serve cold – with bread, gyros or as a dip.
