  • Keftedes & Tzatziki Sauce

    Getting ready for this evenings festivities. So yesterday a made the meatballs and sauce.

    For the Tzatziki Sauce start with 2 cups of plain yogurt add a pinch of salt and a tsp of EVOO to the yogurt. Mix and place in cheese cloth, hang and drain





    Peel and finely chop one medium cucumber. I don't clean the seeds.
    Spread on cutting board and place paper towel over the cucumber to absorb the excess moisture. (You're gonna need to do this multiple times to dry it out)

    Before


    After


    4 Cloves of garlic - minced
    1 Small Onion finely chopped
    1 TBS fresh chopped dill
    1 TBS Lemon Juice (Picture shows White Vinegar which you can use but remembered I had a couple of lemons so that's what I used)



    Mix and let it rest overnight


    Keftedes

    3# Ground Lamb
    2 Cloves of Garlic - Minced
    1 TBS Finely chopped fresh Rosemary
    2 TBS Finely chopped fresh Mint
    1/2 Tsp Oregano
    1 Onion - Pulped
    1 Egg
    2 Slices of bread without the crust and torn into pieces
    1/3 cup of Ouzo
    1 TBS Lemon Juice

    Add the Ouzo to the bread and let it get soggy
    Mix everything in with the lamb.


    Roll into balls


    Coat with flour


    Into the oil for about 8 minutes and they're done


    Also put a batch of Firecrackers together yesterday

            Thanks Guys..

            Will find out tonight if it passes muster.. The TenaciousBee and MrsB are coming up this evening. We drew each other for the gift exchange and since we're a little more than an hour apart decided to do this in person.
