Tahini Yogurt Sauce (5 Minutes)

Description

5 minutes, 5 ingredients, one SUPER delicious tahini yogurt sauce. This sauce is seriously addictive and versatile – drizzle it over lamb or chicken skewers, use as a dipping sauce with flatbreads, toss through salads….the possibilities are endless. Plus you don’t need any fancy equipment – it’s as easy as mixing everything in a bowl and serving.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/2 cup plain or Greek unsweetened yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons tahini paste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Combine the sauce ingredients. Add the 1/2 cup of yogurt, 2 tablespoons of tahini, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon of salt into a small bowl. Using a small grater (like a microplane) or a garlic press, grate or mince the garlic directly into the bowl.
  2. Mix the sauce. Mix the ingredients vigorously with a fork until a cohesive and creamy sauce forms.
  3. Use the sauce. The sauce is now ready to use, or you can store it in a sealed container in the fridge.

Notes

The sauce will keep in the fridge for 1 week in a sealed container.

I prefer a thick sauce so love using Greek or Greek style yogurt in this recipe – plain yogurt will give you a runnier result but if that’s what you like, go for it!
