How to make Tzatziki
Place the yogurt into a mixing bowl.
Squeeze out all the juice from the grated cucumber, then add the cucumber to the yogurt.
Add the lemon zest, mint, dill, salt, and pepper. Mix well and taste to see if more seasoning is needed.
Place into a sauce bowl, drizzle the olive oil over the top, and garnish with a little extra dill.
Tips & Tricks
For a thicker tzatziki, let the yogurt drain in a cheesecloth for a few hours before mixing.
Adjust the amount of mint and dill to your taste preference.
