Categories     Sauce     Condiment

Time 15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

18 oz/500 g yogurt (plain)
1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup cold water
2 to 3 cucumbers (peeled and finely diced)
Optional: 1 to 3 cloves garlic (finely chopped, or 1 to 2 tsp. garlic powder)
1 tsp. salt (more or less to taste)
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/2 tsp. oregano (dried)
Optional: 1/4 tsp. hot red pepper flakes (or sweet paprika)
Garnish: 1/4 cup dill weed (fresh, finely chopped or 1 tsp. dried dill weed)
Garnish: 1/4 cup mint leaves (fresh, finely chopped or 1/2 tsp. dried mint)

Steps:

  • First, whisk the yogurt and olive oil together to make a smooth mixture. Gradually whisk in the water until you get the consistency you want. Some prefer their 'cacık' watery while some like it thick. It's completely up to you.
  • Next add the cucumbers, garlic, and spices and mix thoroughly until smooth. Adjust the spices to your taste.
  • It is best to refrigerate your 'cacık' for a few hours before serving. Serve your ice-cold 'cacık' in small, decorative bowls. Drizzle a little bit of olive oil in the center of each one. Garnish each with a small sprig of fresh mint or dill weed.

CACIK, TURKISH YOGURT DIP WITH CUCUMBERS AND DILL



Cacik, Turkish Yogurt Dip With Cucumbers and Dill image

There's a wonderful Turkish restaurant I started to frequent, and I tried a dish called cacik. I loved it so much I tried to create a version at home. It's versatile enough to halve or double, and is a great vegetable dip for parties or just to make a little for an afternoon snack with some pitas or crackers. I like this with cucumber slices and warm pitas! The restaurant's recipe used half labne and half plain yogurt, but I used just Greek yogurt and it came out fine. Fresh mint and dill would be optimal though I only had dried on hand. The measurements are guesses since except for the salt, I just eyeballed everything else.

Categories     Turkish

Time 10m

Yield 4 , 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

16 ounces Greek yogurt
1 kirby cucumber
1 teaspoon dried dill
1/2 teaspoon dried mint
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 pinch garlic powder

Steps:

  • Finely dice the cucumber into many little pieces. A food chopper is good for this.
  • Mix everything together in a mixing bowl, then serve. Dip usually lasts about 3-4 days in the fridge, though it doesn't survive long around me if there's fresh cucumbers and yummy pitas!
