Mast-O-Khiar (Persian yogurt dip)

We all know Tzatziki, but this Persian yogurt dip is just as delicious. Traditionally topped with dried rose petals, but I unfortunately couldn’t find those where I live.

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cucumber
  • 40gr walnuts, finely chopped
  • 2 tsp chopped fresh mint
  • 200gr Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 clove of garlic, pressed or grated
  • salt/pepper

Recipe:

Grate the cucumber. Squeeze well with your hands to get as much water out of it as possible.
Stir together all ingredients and season to taste with salt and pepper.
