Ingredients:
- 375 g plain yogurt , preferably low fat but remember that the lower the fat percentage, the less tzatziki it'll make
- 1 1/2 garlic cloves, crushed
Directions:
- Place yogurt and shredded cucumber into separate sieves or cheese cloth, over a bowl, cover in saran wrap and leave in the fridge overnight to drain.
- Tip: if you put something heavy on the cucumber, like a mug with water, it'll help to drain more water out.
- The next day, mix the yogurt, cucumber, crushed garlic, and salt to taste.
- Leave in the fridge for a few hours so flavors can blend, then taste and adjust as needed.
- Possible additions include pepper, garlic salt and paprika, depending on what flavor you prefer.
