Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Start by washing and peeling the carrots.
- Using a fine grater or a food processor, grate the carrots until you have 1 cup (120g) of finely grated carrots.
- In a medium mixing bowl, add the 2/3 cup (110g) of Greek yogurt.
- Add the 2 tsp (9g) of pepper sauce to the yogurt. The pepper sauce will add a nice spicy kick to the dip, so adjust according to your spice preference.
- Add the finely grated carrots to the yogurt and pepper sauce mixture.
- Stir well with a spoon or spatula until all ingredients are thoroughly combined. Make sure the grated carrots are evenly distributed throughout the yogurt.
- Taste the dip and adjust the seasoning if necessary. You can add more pepper sauce if you like it spicier. Optionally, add a pinch of salt or a squeeze of lemon juice to enhance the flavors if desired.
- Transfer the dip to a serving bowl.
- For the best flavor, cover and refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together.
- Serve the carrot yogurt dip chilled. It pairs well as a side with fresh vegetable sticks, pita bread, chips, or as a spread on sandwiches and wraps.
Tips:
- For a smoother texture, consider finely grating the carrots or using a food processor to blend them.
- Adjust the amount of pepper sauce according to your desired level of spice. Start with a smaller amount and add more if you like it hotter.
- Let the dip chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve the dip with a variety of fresh vegetables, pita bread, or whole grain crackers for an appealing and wholesome snack.
