Instructions for Tsatsikji (Greek Cucumber Salad)

To prepare the Tsatsikji (Greek Cucumber Salad) recipe, please follow these instructions:

Peel the cucumber. Tear it along. With a teaspoon, the core housing is removed. The cucumber is cut in half-months of approx. ½ cm thickness. Put in a bowl. Salt comes on the cucumbers to pull out the leaves, leave them for about half an hour and pull.

A clean cloth / cloth etc. is put in a sieve. Here the yogurt comes. Leave it for a couple of hours to aim the trap / waist. That way, it gets a thick texture.

The yogurt is now stirred with garlic, olive oil, a little vinegar, salt and pepper. Here the cucumbers turn.

Let the salad stand and pull for an hour before use.

Can be used as an appetizer or as accessory many hot dishes. for example. Lamb, griddle, div. Steaks with garlic bread-alm. Salad-tartar sauce.

tips:
In Greece, a special kind of yogurt is used that you can not buy here in the country. It is therefore closest to the Greek yogurt by aiming the trap from the Danish as described.

In Greece, the cucumbers rub roughly, instead of cutting them in half-months.
