4 servings
- 1 cup whole-milk plain yogurt
Chef's tipUse the same amount. Whole milk is richer, so a lower-fat milk will make the dish a little less creamy. This matters most in baking and custards, where the extra fat adds richness. - 2 tbsp neutral oil (such as avocado or canola oil)
Chef's tipAvocado oil is neutral and handles high heat, making it a good all-purpose swap. - 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 4 garlic cloves, finely grated
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, finely grated
- 2 tsp ground cumin
- 2 tsp ground coriander
- 1 ½ tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- 1 tsp garam masala
- ½ tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- ¼ tsp ground cardamom (optional)
Instructions
- 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the yogurt, oil, and lemon juice until smooth and uniform.
