Spicy Yogurt Sauce
We recently ordered takeout from a local Greek restaurant and it came with a spicy yogurt sauce that was fantastic. We immediately started recipe testing to create our own version.
It’s creamy and easy to make. Just a few ingredients are required –
- plain Greek yogurt (we used full fat since you only need a little bit of the sauce anyway)
- lemon juice
- minced garlic
- sriracha (or hot sauce of your choice)
- salt & pepper
- cumin and cayenne pepper
