Rated: 5 stars out of 5

These were very good. The Sauce should not be a problem, leave out the Cumin and the Red Peppers, Real sauce is Greek Yogurt,... GRATED Cucumber, patted very dry, Grated Onion, also patted very dry and some fresh Garlic. Neve heard of putting Cumin or Red Peppers in it, and I am Greek !Read more

Very good fish tacos
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

This was a very good fish taco. It was easy to make and the smell of all the herbs and lime juice. I used limes instead of... lemons. If you nuke the limes for 25 sec you will get all the juice out of them and they are easier to zest. It all looks so yummy! Everyone thought they were really good. The sauce needs to be reduced by half it is way way to much. I used only one pepper and it was yellow and it turned out as good or better than a red one. I also used one mini english cucumber to reduce the liquid. The sauce was a nice consistency. Next time I will use Greek flat bread instead of the flour tortilla. We will be making these again and again all summer.Read more

Sauce was awful
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

It seemed like a great recipe, but the sauce was so thin it was like soup. I used Greek Style yogurt, but the pepper (which I... patted dry) and the cucumber made it so watery, it was awful. I doubled the yogurt which made it edible. There is no way this recipe took 30 minutes. It took that much just to make the marinade and the sauce, and I am an experienced cook. Plus she showed it on the episode with the orzo salad. It took much longer, used to many ingredients and wasn't worth the effort. Read more
