]]> A great dish for hot summer days, cacık (‘JAH’-juck) is a cool, refreshing blend of cucumber, yoghurt, and mint that’s a firm summer favourite. Served as a meze or alongside grilled meats, vegetables, casseroles, or spicy dishes, it’s also a perfect partner for BBQs. Made with thicker yoghurt such as süzme or Greek, it transforms into a delicious dip, making it as versatile as it is refreshing.

Yoghurt with Cucumber (Cacık)

Serves 4

Ingredients

500 gr. plain yoghurt

2 medium size cucumbers

1 tsp salt

2-3 sprigs dill

1 tsp dried mint

1 clove of garlic (crushed)

2 tbsp olive oil

Method

Peel the cucumbers and cut them into very small, thin pieces. Sprinkle with salt and leave to one side.

Put the yoghurt in a bowl. Beat it well with a fork or a whisk, slowly adding up to one cup of water.

Add the salted cucumbers and crushed garlic. Sprinkle with chopped dill and dried mint.

Slowly drizzle the olive oil on top.

Serve chilled.

Afiyet olsun!
