Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Low-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Curry powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 tablespoon Fresh cilantro (optional for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the low-fat Greek yogurt.
Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking to incorporate it smoothly into the yogurt.
Add the lemon juice and honey, continuing to whisk until fully combined.
Stir in the curry powder, ensuring it is well mixed with the wet ingredients and no clumps remain.
Introduce the garlic powder, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Whisk the mixture until all the spices are evenly distributed throughout the dressing.
Gradually add the water, one tablespoon at a time, to achieve the desired consistency. For a thicker dressing, use less water.
Taste the dressing and adjust any seasonings to your preference, adding more lemon juice for acidity or honey for sweetness if needed.
Once everything is combined, transfer the dressing into a serving bowl or jar.
For an optional garnish, finely chop fresh cilantro and sprinkle it over the top just before serving.
Serve immediately, or refrigerate for up to a week in an airtight container.
