Ingredients
- 2 cups yogurt (plain)
- 1 cucumber, finely grated (medium cucumber, unpeeled, the cucumber has to be seeded before grated)
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 tablespoon dill, fresh, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, pressed or mashed
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (extra virgin)
- 1/4 cup water, cold
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
How to Make
-
Step 1: In a bowl mix cucumbers, garlic, sea salt olive oil, and vinegar. In the absence of cucumbers, thick-sliced fried zucchini can be used along with chopped fried or roasted red peppers with the skin peeled off.
-
Step 2: Meanwhile, in a separate bowl thin the yogurt with cold water not to thin but not to thick. Personally, I like it more on the thicker side. You can also use your own homemade yogurt.
-
Step 3: At this point pour in the mixture from the first bowl and mix them all together.
-
Step 4: Serve in small bowls and drizzle 2 teaspoons of olive oil.
-
Step 5: Lastly, garnish with fresh chopped dill. Put in the refrigerator for half an hour to an hour to chill.
-
Step 6: This can be paired with grilled fish or meats and vegetables. Enjoy!
