Authentic Tzatziki sauce Recipe (Greek Yogurt, Cucumber Dip) image

The authentic Greek tzatziki sauce recipe. Find out how to prepare this creamy Greek yogurt, cucumber and garlic dip as served in the very best taverns!

Provided by Eli K. Giannopoulos

Categories     Dips

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cucumber
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1/4 of a cup extra virgin olive oil
500g strained Greek yogurt (18 ounces)
1-2 tbsps of red wine vinegar
a pinch of salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • To prepare this authentic Greek tzatziki sauce recipe, remove the skin and the seeds of the cucumber and grate it into a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper and leave aside for 10 minutes.
  • Afterwards, wrap the grated cucumber in a towel and squeeze, in order to get rid of the excess water.
  • Assemble the tzatziki sauce. In a bowl, add the cucumber, the minced garlic and olive oil, the yogurt, 1-2 tbsps of red wine vinegar, a pinch of salt and blend, until the ingredients are combined. Store the tzatziki sauce in the fridge and always serve cold. (Alternatively, if you have a blender, pour in the olive oil and garlic and blend until combined. Then mix with the rest of the ingredients using a spoon. This will help the garlic to mix better with the rest of the ingredients).
  • Prepare this traditional tzatziki sauce for your friends and family and serve as a delicious dip with some warm pita breads aside, or as a sauce for Greek-style souvlaki. Enjoy!
