Equipment
Ingredients
- ½ large cucumber
- 1 cup 250 grams unsweetened dairy free yoghurt thick Greek-style coconut, oat, or soy yoghurt is best
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Grate the cucumber using a box grater. Place it in a clean tea towel or paper towel and squeeze out as much excess moisture as you can. This keeps the tzatziki from becoming watery.
- In a medium bowl, combine the dairy free yoghurt, grated cucumber, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, and chopped dill. Stir well until smooth and well combined.
- Add salt and pepper to taste. Adjust lemon juice if needed.
- For best flavour, let it chill in the fridge for 15–30 minutes before serving as a dip or sauce.
