Tzatziki – the Greek classic

Cucumbers, Greek yoghurt and garlic – get the summer flavour! Tzatziki goes perfectly with meat, fish, grilled vegetables or with crusty bread.

You need

  • 1 organic cucumber 
  • 500 g Greek yoghurt (10% fat) 
  •  4 garlic cloves 
  •  a squeeze of lemon juice 
  • 1-2 tbsp olive oil 
  •  salt,  pepper 
  •  few springs of fresh dill


Step 1

An organic cucumber tastes better and it also does not have to be peeled. Rinse the cucumber briefly with lukewarm water and then dry it – that’s it.

Step 2

Cut the cucumber lenthwise and remove the core. E.g. using a fruit and vegetable corer

Step 3 

Grate the cucumber with a coarse grater. If you want to, you can now wring out the grated cucumber with a tea towel. This keeps the tzatziki nice and thick.

Step 4

Finely chop the dill.

Step 5

In a bowl, mix the yogurt, cucumber, garlic, salt, pepper, chopped dill, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Peel and press the garlic or grate it very finely with an aroma grater.

Step 6

Finally, drizzle with a little olive oil and – if you have time – set aside for 30 minutes.
