TZATZIKI (GYRO SAUCE) RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Tzatziki (Gyro Sauce) Recipe - Food.com image

I love the sauce that is on a gyro. I wanted to make my own for a greek salad to use as a dressing and found this in a Gourmet magazine. It worked out great. Now I just need to figure out gyros so that I can have it on that. Cooking time is for the chilling it is not necessary but I like mine served cold.

Total Time 1 hours 15 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 1 hours

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded, and diced
1 garlic clove
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup plain yogurt (preferably goat's or sheep's milk)
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon pepper, divided

Steps:

  • Toss cucumber with 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a colander and drain 15 minutes.
  • Mince and mash garlic to a paste with 1/4 teaspoon salt, then whisk together with olive oil, yogurt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  • Squeeze out any excess water from cucumbers with your hands, then stir cucumbers into yogurt mixture. Season with salt.
  • Cover and chill 1 hour.

FOOLPROOF GREEN SALAD RECIPE - BBC FOOD



Foolproof green salad recipe - BBC Food image

There is nothing worse than a boring bowl of green leaves served at a table with a meal. I like to add some crunchy vegetables to it and I have a trick to let you make this ahead so the lettuce doesn’t wilt even though you prepared it a couple of hours ago!
