Sarah's Swiss Chard Tzatziki

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Swiss chard stems removed
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • Garlic to taste
  • Salt to taste
  • Cayenne
  • Dill fresh, chopped
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Bring a small saucepan of water to the boil
  2. Add 1 cup of finely chopped chard with no stems, and let cook for 3 minutes. When the 3 minutes are up, strain through a fine mesh strainer and run under cold water.

  3. In a bowl, mix 1 cup plain Greek yoghourt, as much garlic as you like (I used a couple of cloves finely chopped, but I really like garlic), a generous pinch of salt, a pinch of cayenne pepper (I used a bit more), as much finely cut dill as you like, a tablespoon of olive oil, and a tablespoon of lemon juice. Add the chard in when it's cooled down and well strained, and mix it all together.

  4. Serve with grilled pita bread.

Recipe Notes

Instead of garlic, you could use 1 or 2 finely minced or pureed garlic scapes.
