Tzatziki

This is an easy recipe for a thick, garlicky tzatziki. Great with lamb or chicken, perfect for dipping with pita, and useful as a quick marinade base.

Ingredients

• 1 carton Icelandic yoghurt, such as Skyr
• 4 garlic cloves
• Juice of 1/2 lemon
• 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh dill
• Salt, to taste
• Pita, for serving

Now Cook

1. Open the yoghurt and drain off any liquid. Keep the yoghurt in the container, as you can mix everything right in it.
2. Peel the garlic and press it directly into the yoghurt.
3. Stir the garlic into the yoghurt until evenly mixed.
4. Finely chop the dill, add it to the yoghurt and stir again.
5. Add the lemon juice and white wine vinegar, then stir.
6. Add the olive oil and stir until combined.
7. Season with salt to taste and stir once more.
8. Put the lid back on the yoghurt container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight if possible.
9. Serve with pita warmed on the stove or BBQ.
