Need a tasty sauce that goes with any kind of meat? Try this recipe. You can use this sauce to substitute for mayonnaise (this stuff tastes better), or if you're worried about the high sugar content in BBQ sauce. Make sure that you play some Greek Bouzouki music while you're making it. This is especially good with pork or chicken kebabs. It also makes a swell salad dressing. Have some leftover rice that's too dry? Dollop some of this on top. It's versatile!
Ingredients:
750g container of yogurt (get something creamier than 2%, my batch was too sour)
1 lemon
1/2 cucumber
a handful of chopped fresh dill
a swig of olive oil
salt & pepper
1 tablespoon minced garlic
Directions:
Finely chop the dill.
Finely dice the cucumber
(You may want to remove the skin of the cucumber first with a peeler. The skin will add bitterness)
Throw them in a bowl
Squeeze lemon halves into your hand above the bowl to catch the pits
Add salt and pepper to the bowl
Add the olive oil and minced garlic
Add the yogurt and mix thoroughly
Taste the mixture and adjust to taste
Serve it as a sauce for your favourite meat.
