Yoghurt-sour cream spicy tzatziki

Monday, 24 March 2008 by Lore

my spicy tzatziki

Ingredients

  • • 175 ml plain yoghurt
  • • 3 Tbsp of sour cream
  • • 1 pickled green chili pepper - finely minced
  • • 2 Tbsp grated, hand squeezed gherkins (from about 5 hole gherkins)
  • • 1 Tbsp fresh dill – chopped
  • • Salt – to taste
  • • 2 tsp grated horseradish


Directions

Mix well all ingredients except for the salt. Taste to decide how much salt it needs and then adjust seasoning accordingly. You can serve it like this but if you want to have that great taste of infused flavours refrigerate before serving.

Decorate with fresh dill.

I like it with steaks and anything that has been fried.

    Rosa - I hear you! I love souvlaki too and of course gyros…couldn’t live without it :) This tzatziki would add quite a bit of spiciness to it.

    Ann - Thanks! I told you they would be a match made in heaven :)

    Smita - Wow! Thank you for your sweet compliment!

    Thanks Gattina! I believe it looks better on a bigger width, but my blog only allows me about 380 pixels width photos :(.

    I will take this recipe and will eat many gyros with it. Or maybe use it as a dip. Thanks for the recipe!

    I think this recipe was sub-consciously made for me. I LOVE spicy things and tzatziki. There’s no way I wouldn’t like this.
