Tzatziki

It was a very hot day, and all we feel like eating was something cool and fresh. A little couscous salad, roasted aubergines and of course that creamy cucumbery thing the Greeks call Tzatziki. It tastes much better by a big blue sea, but nevertheless it is always welcome in a bright Summer day. The recipe was adapted from Reference Answers. 

Tzatziki

• 2 cups plain yogurt
• 1 unpeeled cucumber, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, crushed
