Ingredients

• 1 cucumber
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1/4 of a cup extra virgin olive oil
• 500g of strained yogurt (18 ounces)
• 1–2 tbsps of red wine vinegar

Directions

1. Pour in a blender the olive oil and grated garlic and blend until combined. Remove the skin and the seeds of the cucumber and grate it into a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper and leave aside for 10 minutes. Wrap the grated cucumber in a towel and squeeze, in order to get rid of the excess water. In a bowl, add the cucumber, the blended garlic and oil, the yogurt, 1-2 tbsps of red wine vinegar, a pinch of salt and blend, until the ingredients are combined. Store the tzatziki sauce in the fridge and always serve cold.
