FETA SAUCE

Feta Sauce image

This sauce is meant to be served with kebabs, so would go great with any grilled meat. This recipe calls for Greek yogurt which is similar to plain yogurt, but thicker. You can thicken ordinary plain yogurt by lining a strainer with cheesecloth, placing yogurt inside and letting it drip for about 20 minutes or to desired thickness.

Tips:

For the best flavor, use fresh spinach. If using frozen spinach, thaw and squeeze out excess moisture before using.
To make the latkes crispy, cook them over medium-high heat and do not overcrowd the pan.
Serve the latkes immediately with the feta yogurt sauce.
For a vegetarian option, omit the feta cheese from the latkes and the feta yogurt sauce.
To make the latkes ahead of time, cook them according to the recipe and then let them cool completely. Store the latkes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When ready to serve, reheat the latkes in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until warmed through.
