Title: Greek Tzaziki
Post by: Tomer1 on March 31, 2011, 01:11:44 AM
I havent made this in a such a long time.
I had some left over yogurt which I strained to thicken and acidify some more (left in a warm oven for a few hours).
Fresh garlic is now in season which is just another reason to make this dish.

Basically its freestyle:

3-4 large mint leafs finely choped
A glass of thick yogurt
3 cucambers very finely diced and left for a few hours with salt to drain and become even more crunchy.
1-2 cloves of garlic
Some lemon juice of the yogurt is mild
A hip of extra virgin olive oil

Speard on some good dark bread.
