Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Thick plain yogurt
- 1 large Red onion
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
- 0.75 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Peel and finely slice the red onion into thin strips.
Peel and mince the garlic cloves.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the sliced onions and a pinch of salt. Stir occasionally and cook for about 10 minutes until the onions become soft and caramelized.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
Sprinkle the ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, and red chili flakes over the onions and garlic. Stir well to coat the mixture in the spices. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, then remove the skillet from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, add the thick yogurt. Stir in the lemon juice and the remaining salt until smooth.
Once the spiced onion mixture has cooled slightly, fold it gently into the yogurt. For a swirled effect, don’t mix completely.
Chop the fresh cilantro and sprinkle it on top as a garnish.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes to enhance the flavors. Enjoy with fresh bread, crackers, or as a dip for vegetables.
