Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 3 medium Garlic cloves
- 1.5 teaspoons Ground curry powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cayenne pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground turmeric
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves or crush them using a garlic press.
Heat the olive oil in a small skillet over low heat and sauté the minced garlic for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Add the ground curry powder, cayenne pepper, and turmeric to the skillet. Stir for about 30 seconds to toast the spices, enhancing their flavors, then remove from heat.
In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, sautéed garlic-spice mixture, lemon juice, and salt.
Whisk the mixture together until smooth and fully incorporated.
Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary, adding more salt or cayenne pepper for extra heat.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and optionally garnish with freshly chopped cilantro for a touch of brightness.
Serve immediately with your choice of vegetables, chips, or flatbread, or refrigerate for up to 3 days in an airtight container to let the flavors deepen.
