Ingredients
- 2 pounds yoghurt Fage
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1/4 cup red vinegar
- 1 cucumber shredded
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup vinegar
Method
- Empty your yoghurt in a bowl, if you are using Fage yoghurt you don't need to drain it.If you use other yoghurt you have to drain it. To obtain a thicker effect use sour cream. ( This was my dad's little secret). Let it drain for 30 min. Place a very thin cloth in a colander and then empty your yoghurt.
- Take 1 cucumber, I used 3 small ones. Peel them, shred them and drain them in a colander for 30 minutes as well. Cucumbers retain plenty of liquid so you don't want this in your tzatziki sauce, if you don't drain them, you will get a very runny sauce.
- Shred them your cucumbers.
- Cut your garlic cloves into tiny pieces.
- Add your oil, vinegar and garlic to yoghurt mixture. I measure my vinegar and oil using shot glasses, it's convenient for me.
- Mix everything together and let it sit an hour before serving so all the flavors can blend in. I usually prepare it the night before. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Decorate and serve. Kale Orexi !!!
