Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 1.5 teaspoons Curry powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel the garlic cloves and place them on a small piece of aluminum foil. Drizzle with olive oil and wrap tightly into a small pouch.
Roast the garlic pouch in the oven for 10 minutes, or until the garlic is soft and golden brown.
Remove the roasted garlic from the oven, let it cool for 2-3 minutes, and then mash it into a smooth paste using a fork.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the mashed garlic, Greek yogurt, and mayonnaise. Stir until well blended.
Add the curry powder, ground cumin, honey, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Taste the dip and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
Transfer the dip to a serving dish and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Serve chilled with fresh vegetables, pita bread, crackers, or use as a spread for sandwiches.
