Ingredients
- 400 g Greek yogurt
- 1 cucumber
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp dill
Instructions
- Grate the cucumber and squeeze out all the water.
- Stir into the yogurt with garlic, lemon and dill.

💡 Chef's tip
Use thick Greek yogurt and let the tzatziki chill an hour so the garlic mellows and the flavors set.
Squeezing the grated cucumber dry before mixing is non-negotiable: skip it and the cucumber's water turns your thick tzatziki into a runny soup within minutes.
