Notes
Tip
This tzatziki is a great Greek dish that goes perfectly with lamb.
Tip
It has simple fresh flavours that cut oily food with a nice acidic finish.
Tip
It works as a great dip with crudites and can also be great poured over lamb or chicken kebabs.
Tip
If this recipe is a little too wet you can strain it over a bowl in some clean muslin or a new thin dishcloth that has been rinsed in clean water.
Tip
For the best flavour, let the Tzatziki rest overnight for the garlic flavours to develop.
Storage
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
