Tzatziki Sauce

This cool and creamy sauce is delicious with so many Greek dishes like Falafel Patties. It also make a wonderful appetizer served with pita bread, pita chips or vegetable dippers. It is similar to Raita and can be used with Indian recipes as well. Make it ahead and chill it for a couple of hours to let the flavors develop.
