RECIPE

500g Greek Yoghurt, Full Fat (see notes)
1/2 Lebanese cucumber, peeled
1/4 cup olive oil (see notes)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp fresh mint, finely chopped
1 tsp salt

Instructions:
Tzatziki Dip
Let’s begin with the yoghurt. If you want more information on what type to use, see the notes below. Place a cheese cloth, otherwise known as a muslin cloth over a sieve. Pour the yoghurt into it and tie a tight knot at the top. Place over a large bowl and place it in the fridge overnight or 24 hours. The longer you let it strain, the thicker your dip will be. Once it’s finished straining, discard the water from the yoghurt and place the strained yoghurt into a medium sized mixing bowl.

Grate the cucumber and place in the cheese cloth. Squeeze it hard to get rid of any of the water from the cucumber. There’s a lot and not straining it will make your strained yoghurt watery again.

Add the strained cucumber in the yoghurt along with the minced garlic, salt, olive oil and chopped mint. Mix until well combined.

To serve, place in your nicest bowl, create a swirl with a spoon and drizzle with some olive oil. Place a black olive in the centre.

Notes
Storage
Dip can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Greek Yoghurt
Make sure you use full fat yoghurt for this recipe. Using low fat yoghurt is pointless because it’s mostly made up of water and we’re draining it. It’ll just result in less yoghurt and more wastage.

Olive Oil
Make sure you’re using really good quality olive oil here because it really makes a difference. You could use the light extra virgin kind, but I find the full flavoured dark one adds more flavour.

  • @re-de
    Great! I make it the same way you do!! I love it when i go to greek restaurants and kinda tried to figure out how it’s made! I guess i came pretty close!!
  • I left the video as soon as he said “leave it for 24 hr” 😂 not saying it’s not good, I just needed a “today” version.
  • Looks so good!at my famyily we mix a little bit apple cider vinegar in there too for a little bit acidity but i can't wait to try your recipe 😊
  • I have deseeded and grated the cucumbers and have them resting in a bowl with a pinch of salt and then will strain the water out. I'm making your recipe because I love the mint. Everything after straining is your recipe. Magnificent recipe. When I was growing up my mom made this and served it as a dip. She would add a couple of finely diced green onions and serve a toasted muffulotta bread that had been spread with garlic butter and grated parmesan cheese and toasted in the oven. Cut apart to make a upper and lower disc and cut in pie wedges. This sauce is so versatile. Thank you!
  • Looks delish! Traditionally we add vinegar and dill instead of mint 🥰😜
  • I made this recipe and it turned out great! I think I like this version of Tzatziki with mint instead of dill.
