3. Combine the Greek yogurt with the garlic paste, fresh lemon juice, and extra virgin olive oil, mixing well.
4. Incorporate the grated and drained cucumber into the bowl with the yogurt. Add the finely chopped fresh dill.
5. Season generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Mix and adjust the seasoning to taste.
6. Heat the pita bread until lightly golden and flexible, ensuring they don't dry out.
7. Present the tzatziki in a ceramic dish, drizzled with olive oil and garnished with dill. Serve immediately with the pita bread.
