Cucumber-yogurt Dipping Sauce (Tzatziki) This is a classic of the meze table. Tzatziki is usually served alone, to be enjoyed with bread, also is great with veggies, on top of sautes, or on sandwiches. Ingredients:
16 ounces fat free plain yogurt |
2 cucumbers, chopped |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
2 tbs olive oil |
1 tbs vinegar |
2 tbs mint |
2 tbs lemon juice |
Directions:
1. Combine the yogurt, cucumbers, garlic, olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper in a serving bowl. Mix well and refrigerate, covered, for an hour before serving. Serve chilled, garnished with mint leaves. (I like tzakiki that is more like a sauce but for a thicker consistency, drain the yogurt in cheesecloth for an hour beforehand and drain the cucumbers in a strainer.)
