Does anyone have a good, but easy recipe for greek taziki sauce?

Answer 1

3 cups plain yoghourt
1 cup cucumber, peeled and grated
1-2 cloves minced garlic
juice of 1/2 lemon

Mix, and strain -- place paper towels in a sieve or colander and just dump it in (warning -- place something sizable under it; lots of liquid comes out) and leave it for at least two hours, and as long as overnight. I promise that's a reliable recipe. You can add a bit of mint or dill if you like, and a little drizzle of olive oil on top just before serving it...

Don't use fat-free yoghourt, and you might want to seed the cucumber if it's not the small-seeded 'English' kind, but that's it.

Answer 2

Greek Yogurt is essentially the same as natural American Yogurt that has been strained overnight! Use 2 cups of this strained yogurt and 1 cucumber grated or placed in a food processor and nearly liquefied and add 2 cloves of garlic either minced or added to the cucumber and processed as well. Add juice of one lemon and stir in about 1 to 2 ounces of minced dill (2-4 tablespoons). Refrigerate at least 4 hours and preferably overnight and optionally add 1 tablespoon Italian parsley and serve. Works every time
Note If you have to strain yogurt overnight and you have to chill mixture overnight, then prep time is 2 days!!!!!
