Prep Time20 minutes
Total Time20 minutes
Course: Side Dish
Cuisine: Mediterranean
Keyword: cucumber, yogurt
Servings: 4 portions

Ingredients

  • ½ cucumber
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 200 ml Greek yogurt
  • ½ tsp salt
  • A pinch of white pepper

Instructions

  • Slice the cucumber and then quarter the slices. Press dry between two pieces of paper, to get out as much of the water as you can.
  • Mince garlic and mix with cucumbers, Greek yogurt, salt and pepper.
  • Let rest in the fridge for at least an hour before serving to Mediterranean hamburgers.

Notes

Some recipes call for shredding the cucumber, personally I don’t like the texture of shredded cucumber, but the advantage is that you can get even more water out from shredded cucumbers compared to if you leave them quartered.
Serve your tzatziki with these delicious Mediterranean hamburgers.
