What is Yogurt salad with dill?
Yogurt salad with dill is a cool Turkish-style side made with yogurt, fresh dill, cucumber, olive oil, garlic and spices. Depending on the cook, the cucumber may be grated or diced, and the yogurt can make the salad either spoonable and thick or looser. It is often served as a meze or as part of a home-style meal.
Its tangy, creamy base is lifted by fragrant dill and crisp cucumber. In Turkey it commonly accompanies grilled foods and vegetable dishes, especially in warm weather; it also works with bread as part of a spread. It is a relatively light side, with modest amounts of protein and fat rather than the substance of a main dish. For a lighter version, use less oil and choose how much garlic to add to suit the rest of the meal.
