Tzatziki!

If I had to pick my favourite type of food Greek would be in the top 3

I just whipped up a batch of homemade Tzatziki sauce and wanted to share the recipe with you all because it's so easy and delicious!

Tonight I plan on making Chicken Slouvlaki

Tzatziki Sauce
'Whitewater Cooks' by Shelley Adams

INGREDIENTS
1 long English cucumber grated and juice drained through a colander
1 cup sour cream
2 cups plain yogurt
zest and juice of 1 lemon
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp dill, finely chopped (fresh if possible)
1/2 tsp mint (optional)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper

METHOD
In a large mixing bowl, combine ingredients and mix well

To thicken up thin yogurt, line a colander with paper towel and place it over a bowl
Put the yogurt in the colander and let the liquid drip out for about an hour

Enjoy!
