Instructions to make Tzatziki:

1. Add the yoghurt to a bowl. Chop the cucumber into small cubes, about 1/8 inch each. Finely chop the mint and add both to the yoghurt.
2. Smash the peeled clove of garlic with the flat of a knife and put this in, too.
3. Finally, add the dill, lemon juice and salt, stir, then put in the fridge for at least 40 minutes. All the flavours will seep into the yoghurt, so honestly, this part, where you do nothing, is the most important bit.
