Even the most ordinary can be turned into something special

with a bit of thought….

Our little cockpit snack…

some of our favourite chips (black pepper and lime)…

some homemade tzatziki (see recipe below)…

some fresh veggies…

and a frosty can of Captain’s ‘double O’ beer.

1 cup Greek yogurt

1/4 large English cucumber, cubed

1 tbps sea salt (for salting the cucumber)

1 tbsp lemon juice

1 clove garlic

1 tbsp fresh mint

1 tbsp fresh dill

sea salt & pepper to taste

Place cucumber in collander and sprinkle with salt (*see Galley Kat Note below)

Let stand for 30 minutes.

Press out as much of the juice as possible.

Combine all ingredients in a bowl and process with your blender of choice

(onboard I use our little Kitchen King Pro)

Season according to taste

Once I have salted the cucumber,

I like to reserve a couple of tablespoons of cubes

to add after blending to give some texture.
