This is a fabulous accompaniment to any grilled meats...especially souvlaki pork or chicken and even lamb. It's also yummy as a dip for veggies. Heres a tip: grill some greek-style marinated pork or chicken, slather tzatziki sauce on a fresh pita bread, add meat, then top off with thinly sliced onion and some sliced tomato-a little more sauce on top and voila...Souvlaki Pita! *You can use low-fat sour cream or plain yogurt. Ingredients:
1 (500 ml) container sour cream |
1 large english cucumber, unpeeled (seeded and grated) |
2 -3 garlic cloves, minced |
2 -3 tablespoons olive oil |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 teaspoons dried mint (optional) or 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint (optional) |
Directions:
1. Grate cucumber and let sit in a colander to drain water for a 1/2 hour; squeeze excess and add to sour cream. 2. Add remaining ingredients and let flavours meld for a couple of hours in the refrigerator. |
