You will need
Serves 0
- 1 1/2 cups plain, unsweetened coconut yoghurt
- 1 Lebanese cucumber, grated, then squeezed to remove excess liquid
- 2-3 tablespoons chopped parsley
- 2-3 tablespoons chopped mint
- 2-3 tablespoons chopped dill
- 1-2 cloves garlic, crushed
- Zest & juice of 1 lemon
Directions
-
Step 1
Simply combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Season with salt and pepper to taste, starting with very little, remembering that lemon juice can make foods taste saltier than they are.
-
Step 2
Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavours to infuse.
-
Step 3
Give the tzatziki another good stir, check the seasoning, then spoon into a serving bowl and serve.
Hot tip!
Pack your favourite flatbread or pita pocket with some juicy tomato and red onion slices, shredded lettuce, olives, jalapeños, and some grilled plant-based meat or felafels — then drizzle with this creamy homestyle tzatziki for a delicious kebab-style wrap!
