For this Mediterranean-inspired dressing, I start with Greek yogurt, add fresh and vibrant dill, a splash of lemon juice, garlic and more. Combine together and serve. How easy is that! For a variation, you can add some sour cream too. I love pairing this creamy yogurt dressing with naan bread, pita bread or nachos for an appetiser. Perfect for entertaining or snacking!

Creamy Yogurt: For the lush texture I love, I opt for Greek yogurt with its higher fat content. However, you can easily switch to natural yogurt for a slightly less creamy variation. Fresh Dill: The key to elevating the flavours lies in using fresh and vibrant dill. Its addition enhances the taste manifold. While my preference is fresh dill, dried dill can be a substitute if needed. Garlic: A single clove of large garlic or two small ones works wonders in my dressing. If fresh garlic isn’t on hand, garlic powder or granules can step in with their milder flavour. Lemon: The infusion of lemon juice is essential to strike the perfect flavour balance. Olive oil : It is optional. But a drizzle of olive oil on the top will add richness. Paprika: Add a pinch just before serving. Salt and Pepper: to taste Optional Addition: Cucumber: To transform this creamy yogurt sauce into a delightful Greek Tzatziki, simply incorporate some grated cucumber. The choice is yours!
