CUCUMBER SAUCE FOR GYROS

Cucumber Sauce for Gyros image

I tried different sauces but didn't find the taste I was looking for so I threw some stuff together and I was very happy with the results. If you try it and tweak it, let me know. I edited the recipe after reading the great suggestions.

Provided by Tom Collins

Categories Sauces

Time 2h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

6 tablespoons sour cream
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon dried dill (optional)
1 large cucumber (seeded, peeled and finely chopped, or grated)
1 pinch salt (to taste)
1 pinch pepper (to taste)

Steps:

Put the cucumber into a colander and sprinkle with a little salt.
Let rest for 10-15 minutes to allow extra juices to escape the cucumber.
Gently squeeze the cucumber in a paper or cloth towel.
Put everything a bowl and mix well (I don't rinse the cucumber).
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Refrigerate for a couple of hours prior to using (if you have time).
A turn or two in the food processor would yield a nice smooth sauce.
Good on anything, especially Gyros.
