Preparation Time5 min
Ingredients
- 3 Garlic cloves
- 3 cups Mayonnaise (full-fat works best)
- 2 tablespoons Greek Style Yogurt (or plain yogurt)
- 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed Lemon Juice
- 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin OIive Oil (or olive oil)
- 1 teaspoon Za’atar Spice Blend (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano Flakes, more or less to taste
-
Smash the garlic: Using a mortar and pestle, smash the garlic cloves into a smooth paste. (Note: Use a mini blender to pulse the garlic into a paste if you don’t own a mortar and pestle. Alternatively, crush the garlic with the flat side of your knife, and then use the back of the knife to smash it into a paste.)
-
Make the sauce: Combine the smashed garlic paste, mayonnaise, Greek style yogurt, lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, za’atar, and dried oregano flakes in a small bowl. Mix until evenly combined. Use in kebabs, salads, pizzas, sandwiches, burgers, as a dip, etc.

Storing: Store in a sealed airtight container in the fridge and consume within 5-7 days.
