Step 1

First grate the cucumber and place in a strainer over a bowl. Grab a handful at a time and squeeze out as much liquid as you can. Add to a medium mixing bowl as you go. No need for a food processor!

Step 2

Add remaining ingredients and mix everything together. Season with more salt and pepper to taste if necessary and or lemon juice if needed for more zip. Drizzle with olive oil and some fresh chopped dill if you like. Serve right away or refrigerate for later to let the flavours meld and to thicken more. For step by step photos see above post.

Step 3

Enjoy the tzatziki with Vegan Gyros, Falafels, Shwarmas, or as a dip with veggies, naan or pita! and many more greek dishes!
