3–4 garlic cloves, crushed or finely minced

1 tsp cumin

2 Tbsp finely chopped fresh dill, plus more for garnish

(I find tzatziki needs a good amount of salt to bring out the best flavours, start with 1 tsp, adding more to taste)

Instructions

Put grated cucumber in a colander and allow to drain for at least 30 minutes. Gently squeeze with hands or in a clean towel to remove excess moisture. Place drained cucumber in a bowl, add all the other ingredients; stir to combine.

Refrigerate for a minimum of two hours to allow flavours to develop
