Roasted Garlic and Fennel Tzatziki

Method

Make the tzatziki

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 180°C (fan-forced).
  2. 2
    Slice the top off the garlic bulb to expose the cloves. Place on a square of foil, drizzle with 2 tbsp olive oil and a pinch of salt, and wrap tightly. Roast for 45 minutes until soft and jammy. Allow to cool slightly.
  3. 3
    Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves into a large mixing bowl.
  4. 4
    Add the yoghurt, chopped fennel, mint, dill, lemon juice, salt flakes, and 80 ml olive oil. Mix until well combined.
  5. 5
    Spoon the tzatziki into a serving bowl or plate. Top with reserved fennel fronds and a final drizzle of olive oil.
...And that's it, enjoy!

For ultra-thick tzatziki, strain the yoghurt overnight in muslin or cheesecloth over a bowl.

The dip can be made a day ahead and stored in an airtight container in the fridge. Stir before serving.

Replace fennel with 2 grated cucumbers (squeezed dry) for a more traditional version.
