This was the recipe I used in a pizza house that I owned back in the late '70's & '80s. I actually had to give out sample of gyros in order to get the people to try them. Once they tasted them they were hooked;D Fluffy light and flavorful sauce used on Gyros, as dip with pita chips & veggies, salad dressing also. Prep time does not include drainage time.
Ingredients:
2 medium cucumbers, unpeeled, sliced and seeded and grated
1/2 white onion, diced
2 cups plain yogurt (drained overnight in a coffee filter)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dill
salt
white pepper
1 teaspoon oregano
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon olive oil
Directions:
1. Night before; grate, salt and drain cucumbers, drain yogurt (separately) I use a coffee filter or cheese cloth depending on how much I'm making.
2. Next day just mix everything up and store in tightly closed container in fridge.
