Minty Yogurt Sauce for Tamiya/Tameya
I have tried minty yogurt sauce, like turkish cacik and the minty dip served with bolani before, but with tahini in it, this is the first time. The Original recipe didn't have green chili and coriander but, since i had less mint i added some coriander too for that greeny touch. This is one of the best sauce to dip your falafel or any appetizer for that matter. This can also be used as a spread for your sandwich or wraps, the list is endless and also it is pretty easy to prep, go grab your stuff and try this!!!
Inspired from The Guardian
Ingredients
1 cup plain yogurt
3 tablespoon tahini
2 garlic cloves,
1 green chilli
Juice of ½ lemon
Salt to taste
2 tablespoon chopped mint
2 tablespoon chopped coriander leaves

Method
- Blitz together garlic, mint, coriander and green chillies, in a mixer to a coarse paste. Whisk the coarse paste with the yogurt, tahini, salt and lemon juice.
- Add water and thin it down to your preferred consistency. Serve it along with Taamiya/Tameya/Falafel.
i can finish that bowl in one sitting... so good..
i love this minty yogurt , never made it home, as was not sure what all goes in it besides mint and yogurt, but now got a place to lookup..i could have never thought of tahini
I can get the aroma of the mint right here...and I love that bowl...it's beautiful.
That is one refreshing and tasty sauce.
I think the addition of green chili is tempting to me. This is a nice sauce to serve falafel with and a nice combo.
I am sure this dip tastes great with many fried dishehs..
Sauce looks amazing. Great dip
Quick and easy dip..Looks Yum..
