Healthy Spread for Sandwich

Recipe by FB fan, Sindu Venkatesh

I am a big fan of sandwiches and breads. I sautée vegetables to go with it, so it becomes a wholesome meal. I love dips and spreads to pair with them. I try to make it as healthy as possible. This healthy dip was one such find.

I used hung curd to make this dip. Squeeze out the remaining water and transfer to a mixie. Add a pinch of salt, garlic powder, half teaspoon of mixed herbs. If you want the dip spicy you can add some Chilli flakes as well. Blend it for a few seconds, and a creamy healthy dip is ready! Kids will love this. My son refuses to take a spoon of curd, so I hide this dip in sandwiches and he happily eats them.

Ingredients

Half litre curd
3 pods of garlic or garlic powder (I prefer garlic powder since it’s less pungent)
Pinch of salt
Chilli flakes or peri peri powder if spice is needed.
Half teaspoon of mixed herbs

Method

Drain the curd in a thin cloth and hang it on your kitchen sink tap letting the excess water drain. Letting it hang until it loses all its water content will result in a thick creamy dip. Add the other ingredients mentioned above in a mixie jar and transfer the hung curd to it. Blend for a few seconds. Your dip is ready! Refrigerate before use.
