Tzatziki for your girlfriend!

January 30th, 2007 by admin


Tzatziki

Tzatziki is one of the most famous Greek salad recipes. Based on yogurt, it can make a good couple with bread, while eating legumes. But not only this! Greeks dive the barbeque meat in tzatziki, not in unhealthy ketchup and mayonnaise. You can try it in your next barbeque party and leave the guests astonished. Its coolness will make a really good combination with hot meat. Taking some bread dives into tzatziki is a good way to drive your hunger away, bachelors! Apart from meat and legumes, it can also be combined with other foods. Try it to impress your girlfriends and boyfriends! But not exaggerate with the garlic!

To make tzatziki, which is not an actual food, but something that boosts the taste of the food, you need:

1/2 kilo drained Yogurt
1 cucumber (or if it’s big enough the 3/4 of it)
5 soup-spoons of oil (preferably olive oil)
2 soup-spoons of vinegar (if you don’t have vinegar, it’s not a big crime to skip it)
1 or 2 cloves of garlic
Smash the garlic and cut the cucumber into small pieces (cubes).
Then put everything in a bowl and stir up until only yogurt and cucumber pieces can be seen. Preserve in the fridge. It’s that simple!! If you want you can add only one smashed (always smashed!) clove of garlic. Then taste it and add the second one if you want it “heavier”. You can add 3 or 4 as well. Do not overdo it!
