a dip in tzatiki 🌊


TZATIKI, Greek: τ΢ατ΢ίκι). 
A simple cooling Grecian dip that elevates the dish it comes with. 
  • Perfect with grilled/fried meat of choice (poultry, fish, pork/beef). 
  • Even works well with any veggie stick - celery, carrots, cucumber. 
  • Hoorah for fellow snack-munch-bunch out there, this is great with chips and crackers too - more so for the hot/spicy/salty kind (snacks, I mean, yah? Well, also for the hot-headedπŸŒ©πŸ’’πŸ˜ snacker. This dip can cool you down πŸŒ¨❅❆ , tellin ya').
It's very easy to prepare. One important ingredient is dill. This is not a usual herb used in my kitchen. But, mainly for the love of tzatiki, I make sure we always have a stock in the kitchen, be it fresh or dried.

🌿 Steps
2 cups plain yogurt, cooled
1/2 tbsp lemon juice
4 pressed/crushed garlic cloves
1/3 cup chopped dill
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
mix all in the dip bowl.
keep in fridge until ready to serve.
then, enjoy -- dip dip dip away!

Here's one. 🌢☼heat bye bye!🌬

Japanese potato salad, onegaishimasu!!!

Refreshing Crunch in every bite Nice touch of creamy from the potatoes and dressing Wonderful colors BEST of ALL: HEALTHY πŸ₯—  Ingredients  3 potatoes, boiled &  roughly  mashed  1/2 cup of picnic ham, or 1/2 can of Spam, diced and fried. 1 cucumber, sliced 1 carrot, julienne 1/2 cup sweet corn,  1/2 cup picnic ham, diced &fried Japanese mayonnaise (*or any mayo) vinegar 1 boiled egg (optional) Salt and pepper to taste. πŸ₯—  Steps Once the potatoes and ham are done, boiled-mashed, fried, respectively. mix altogether in a big bowl. Serve warm immediately, or it can also be served after being chilled for an hour (if in a rush 30 mins in the chiller will do.) The kids preferred without onions, so I always exclude it. Pair with some nicely fried food, like Japanese sausages, or chicken nuggets; world peace over dinner is hugely important. πŸ’‘ Inspired by: Ochikeron & Just One Cookbook
