A take on the Greek dip Tzatziki serving the cucumbers and yogurt as a side salad rather than a dip makes for a wonderfully fresh side salad for a curry or BBQ meal.

Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt or vegan yogurt (see note)

  • ½ teaspoon crushed garlic
  • 1 English cucumber, cut into medium slices or batons
  • a splash of milk if needed
  • salt and pepper to taste
Method
  1. Mix the dressing together add the cucumbers and if the dressing is very thick, add a splash of milk.
  2. Serve immediately.
Tips
Vegan option: make the recipe with coconut or soya yogurt and ½ the olive oil. Add the olive oil little by little to ensure the yogurt holds it's viscosity and stop as soon as you feel it will not hold any more oil.
