So I decided to spend some money today. I went for a daunder to Lidle after work and picked up a few treats. I was dreaming of Greek food all day so I decided to make Tzatziki (and if I were talking in person to you right now that would have come out as 'tatssssikkkkki'. I am not good at pronouncing hard words). Tzatziki I only had for the first time when I was in Greece last year and I actually fell in love with this refreshing cucumber dip.
Although sometimes when you love something so much it makes you feel a little sick...
And thats how I feel right now. I binged. And now my tummy is asking me 'why?'.
So to make my take on Tzatziki you will need;
Half a 500g tub of Greek Yogurt
1/2 Regular sized Cucumber
2 Cloves of Garlic
2 Tablespoons of Lemon Juice
1 Tablespoon of Olive Oil
1 Tablespoon of Balsamic Vinigar
Paprika
Pita Bread to serve
So, first empty the contents of the yogurt in to a mixing bowl. Dice up the cucumber to the size you would like them to be. I like little chunks, some people might like to grate it or dice it really really fine or having bigger chunks. You decide. Once mixed in with the yogurt, add garlic, lemon juice, olive oil and balsamic vinigar and mix all together. Add a few shakes of paprika, stir again, then it's ready.
So easy. Actually.
I add balsamic vinigar to add a little sweetness to the dip. I feel it compliments the garlic in the mixture. But it does change the colour to a light pinky brown (as apposed to the light yogurt colouring). It is ever so yummy.
Toast those pitas.
