Description

Laban bi Khyar or Tzatziki Sauce is a wonderful Mediterranean side dish or salad that goes great with sandwiches, rice or can be served during the summer days to cool down. This dish can also be referred to as Tzatziki sauce in Greece if you replace the mint with dill. It can be served with Gyros sandwiches as well. 

 

Recipe

2 cups Mediterranean yogurt
1 cup cube Persian cuccumber
1 to 2 clove garlic minced
1 tsp dried mint (or dill)
1/4 cup water (for consistancy)

 

Mix the above ingredients and keep chilled in the refrigerator.

I am Canadian and we have delicious Maple Syrup here in the Eastern Canada, I
was wondering if I could use this syrup in my Baklava instead of the simple
syrup you mentioned in your recipe.

Dede,
What kind of mint is it? Peppermint? I went to an Indian spice store and
they sold me a bag of bulk mint leaves and it tasted like some other exotic
spice with a hint of mint in it. I am looking for that strong mint taste that
you get in Med. cooking. Any suggestions?

Thank you!!

I know Penzys sells, both spearmint and peppermint. You can trust the quality. I
love going to Indian markets, but for some ingredients such as dried mint, it's
probably better to get it from there. i know i'm going to.
