Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, dill, garlic, and salt and chili flakes to taste (I like 1/4 teaspoon salt and pinch red chili flakes). Cover and refrigerate until serving time.

Notes

  • Whole milk yogurt: For a thicker sauce, strain the yogurt over cheesecloth or a coffee filter overnight. If you don't like the taste of yogurt, you can substitute sour cream.
  • Dill: I recommend fresh dill if at all possible rather than dried.
  • Yield: This recipe makes about 1 cup of yogurt sauce, enough for 4 (1/4 cup) servings.
  • Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
