Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 pieces Pita bread
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, garam masala, ground cumin, lemon juice, honey, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if needed. Cover and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Cut the pita bread into 8 wedges per piece (32 wedges in total).
Place the pita wedges on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Toss gently to ensure they are evenly coated.
Sprinkle paprika and dried parsley over the pita wedges for added flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the pita wedges are golden and crispy.
Remove the pita wedges from the oven and let them cool slightly.
Serve the Garam Masala Dipping Sauce in a bowl alongside the toasted pita wedges for dipping.
