Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt (full-fat)
- 2 cloves Fresh garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
- 0.25 teaspoon Chili flakes (optional)
Instructions
Start by preparing the garlic cloves. Peel and finely mince the garlic, making sure to bring out as much flavor as possible.
In a mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt and minced garlic. Stir until the garlic is evenly distributed throughout the yogurt.
Add the lemon juice and olive oil to the yogurt mixture. Mix well to ensure these components are fully incorporated, giving a smooth texture.
Finely chop the fresh dill and add it to the bowl. Stir again to blend the dill throughout the yogurt.
Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and optional chili flakes. Adjust the seasoning according to your taste preference, keeping in mind that the flavors will develop as it sits.
Transfer the garlic yogurt to a serving dish or an airtight container if preparing in advance. Cover and let it refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled as a dip for fresh veggies or as a condiment alongside grilled meats or keto-friendly wraps.
