Ingredients for yogurt-mayo dip

You need only a few ingredients for this creamy mayo yogurt savory dip, as follows:

Yogurt: I prefer full-cream milk yogurt. It gives a good creamy texture.

Mayonnaise: - I love using dill pickle-flavored mayonnaise - it's absolutely delicious! Feel free to use any kind you like. If you're a mayo fan, don't miss how these vegetable mayonnaise and chicken mayonnaise sandwiches turned out!

Mint paste: No one can beat the aroma and flavor of freshly ground mint leaves. You can also use homemade dried mint if fresh mint isn't available. It's easy to make and stores well for quick use.

How to make all-purpose dip?

Start by grinding a few fresh mint leaves with a little water until smooth. Then, combine all the ingredients and whisk thoroughly. You can use a small mortar and pestle or a mini food chopper. Add a splash of water only if needed.

In a bowl, whisk together the yogurt and mayonnaise until smooth. Stir in the sugar, salt, lemon juice, mint paste, and oregano. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
