    Preparation Steps

    1

    Wash the cucumber thoroughly, then grate it finely. If it releases too much liquid, squeeze it out using a clean kitchen towel.

    2

    Peel the garlic cloves and grate them or crush them into a paste.

    3

    In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, and garlic.

    4

    Add the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all the flavors are evenly distributed.

    5

    Finally, stir in the finely chopped dill. This gives the sauce its characteristic fresh flavor.

    6

    Chill the tzatziki for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld. Serve with fresh pita bread or alongside grilled dishes.
