Fresh dip with a punch.
This Mediterranean classic is great to use in wraps, as a side dish, or just to dip warm pitta bread into as a starter. Super easy to make and will have you altering the ingredients to match your taste buds.
Ingredients
150g greek yogurt
¼ cucumber
2 x garlic cloves (or more!)
juice of half a lemon
pinch of paprika
1 tablespoon of olive oil
Prep.
Dice up your cucumber into very small cubes. You have a license here to cut as small or as large as you wish. Even grating if you wanted to.
Peel and crush the garlic.
Make.
Add all ingredients together in a bowl and mix well. Season with salt.
TIP: If you wanted to you could drain the excess water from the cucumber before you add it. Do this by wrapping the cucumber up in a paper towel and squeezing it so the water dampens the towel.
…
NOTE: Play around with the quantities when using the dip for different purposes. I prefer to add a lot of garlic and lemon to pack a punch when eating with just warm pitta as a snack or starter. But this could be overpowering if served with other dishes.
Enjoy.
Prep. Make. Enjoy.
