I've poached another recipe from George Calombaris, however i've changed it up a bit to suit my tastes! Tzatziki is equally my favorite dip, along with French Onion, and 'New Zealand Dip' which my friend Darryl introduced me to (ill see if i can nick the recipe sometime).
George called this 'Traditional Tzatziki' and it certainly tastes markedly different from the stuff that i am used to. I actually prefer regular tzatziki, however this one is worth a try for something different. I was hoping that this would be the rich, creamy tzatziki that is served at Hellenic Republic. But i'm still on the hunt.
Ingredients
500gm greek natural yoghurt
1 cucumber
1/3 cup olive oil
1tbs white vinegar (though i prefer the zing of lemon)
1tbs maluka honey (George says double the amount, but it was too sweet for me)
1tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp salt
Method (kinda basic!)
Add all other ingredients and mix
Refridgerate until very cold.
The dip will improve overnight.
Serve with bread, crackers, or sticks of carrot and celery!
