My husband's cousin from Greece taught me how to make a Tzatziki sauce a lot like this recipe but without the dill. I make this sauce whenever I fix a pork tenderloin. I use the Souvlaki recipe by Abby Benner to marinade the tenderloin. I use Fage Fat-free yogurt which I buy at Trader Joe's.
Instructions to make Tzatziki:
- Peel the cucumber and remove the seeds then cut it into small cubes or strips (or grate it), season with salt and set it aside with the salt for 15'.
- Then strain and squeeze it.
- Place the yogurt, the pepper and the herbs, finely chopped, in a bowl and add the oil, the garlic, crushed, as well as the cucumber. Mix with a wooden spoon until everything is evenly distributed and the mixture is well combined.
