Ingredients

Servings: 8
400g (2 cups) Plain Greek Yogurt
30ml (2 tbsp) Fresh Lemon Juice
2 cloves Garlic
15g (1/4 cup) Fresh Dill
3g (1/2 tsp) Salt
1g (1/4 tsp) Black Pepper
15ml (1 tbsp) Olive Oil

Steps

1

In a medium bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, and chopped fresh dill.

2

Add the salt and freshly ground black pepper to the mixture. If using, drizzle in the optional olive oil for added richness and a smoother texture.

3

Stir all the ingredients together until well combined and the sauce is smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, or lemon juice if needed.

4

For the best flavor, let the sauce rest in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes (or up to 2 days) to allow the flavors to meld. This step is crucial for developing the full taste profile.
