Tzatziki



This is a really quick tzatziki I made very last minute to go with my Pumpkin, Fetta & Spinach Fritters.

1 lebanese cucumber
1 clove garlic finely chopped or grated
1/2 cup of Greek style or natural yoghurt
1 tablespoon of grated lemon rind
2 tablepoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice
pinch salt
freshly ground black pepper

Cut the Lebanese cucumber in half length ways. Scrape out the seeds using a teaspoon. Grate cucumber and squeeze out excess water using your hands (you can also do this more thoroughly by place the grated cucumber in a muslin cloth or tea towel and squeezing it). Mix with grated garlic, lemon rind and juice, salt and black pepper. Mix well and serve. Is a great accompaniment to many meal or served as nibblies with toasted lebanese bread

Biss  :)
