Tzatziki is a delicious Greek dip. Made with yogurt, cucumber, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, herbs and salt. It makes a great dip or even a spread on sandwiches.
Place the grated cucumber in a colander set over a bowl. Using the back of a spoon, push out the excess liquid of the cucumber. Leave for about an hour to drain. Discard liquid.
In a medium bowl, combine the all ingredients and stir well. Cover and refrigerate several hours before serving.
