Step 1

Grate the cucumber and squeeze out the excess liquid using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. This step is crucial to stop the tzatziki from becoming watery.

Step 2

In a bowl, combine the grated cucumber, minced garlic, chopped dill, and mint (if using).

Step 3

Add the kefir, olive oil, and lemon juice to the bowl. Mix all the ingredients together until well whipped.

Step 4

You can season the tzatziki with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 5

Cover the bowl and refrigerate the tzatziki dip for at least 30 minutes before serving. Chilling allows the flavours to marry together.

Step 6

Serve your homemade kefir tzatziki dip as a refreshing condiment with pita bread, grilled meats, or as a dip.
