Tzatziki, cacık or tarator is a dip, soup, or sauce found in the cuisines of Southeast Europe and the Middle East. It is made of salted strained yogurt or diluted yogurt mixed with cucumbers, garlic, salt. Watch how to make Greek tzatziki sauce in this short recipe video.
To get started with this particular recipe, we must first prepare a few components. You can cook tzatziki using 7 ingredients and 4 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.
The ingredients needed to make Tzatziki:
- Make ready 300 ml Greek yoghurt
- Get 1/4 cucumber
- Prepare 1/3 bunch mint
- Prepare 1 tsp dill
- Make ready 1 tbsp lemon juice
- Make ready 1 clove garlic
- Get pinch salt

I pretty much drowned my chicken and smothered everything on my plate with it. I then proceeded to down everything way to fast because it all tasted so.
Instructions to make Tzatziki:
- Add the yoghurt to a bowl. Chop the cucumber into small cubes, about 1/8 inch each. Finely chop the mint and add both to the yoghurt.
- Smash the peeled clove of garlic with the flat of a knife and put this in, too.
- Finally, add the dill, lemon juice and salt, stir, then put in the fridge for at least 40 minutes. All the flavours will seep into the yoghurt, so honestly, this part, where you do nothing, is the most important bit.
- Once it’s done, remove the garlic clove, as it’s an unpleasant surprise otherwise, and smear liberally over meat and bread to hide a multitude of culinary sins. Or just dip carrots in it, and eat it that way.
