Ingredients
  

  • 400 gms plain curd/yoghurt about 2 cups
  • 1/4 cup cream cheese
  • 1 jalapeno deseeded and finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic peeled and crushed
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  • In a thin muslin cloth, hang the curd for 4 to 5 hours at least, until all the water has drained out. Place a small bowl under the curd bundle to catch the liquid.<br></br>
  • Transfer the thickened curd to a small bowl and add the remaining ingredients. Mix well.<br></br>
  • Chill for 15 minutes to allow the flavours to blend, and keep chilled until ready to serve. Eat with lavash, sliced veggies, pita bread, or whatever your favourite dip fixings are!

Notes

*Prep-time does not including time taken to drain the yoghurt completely or chilling time.
