Recently, I learned how tasty coriander yogurt is when paired with a burger. I am sharing the delicious recipe I use when I crave this creamy burger dressing.
Even though it takes a little planning, drained yogurt is an excellent substitute for the very rich “Greek” yogurt. It can be used sweetened (it’s delicious with maple syrup and fresh orange juice) as a fruit topping or with crumbles or cakes and savoury as a dip for raw veggies, with naan bread or other Indian food, or as a side for BBQ dishes. Parsley and chives can be substituted for the coriander.
