Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Best Vegetable Dip
- For a smoother dip, you can briefly pulse the vegetables in a food processor before mixing them into the hung curd. Don't over-process; you still want some texture.
- Feel free to experiment with other vegetables! Finely chopped tomatoes, onions, or even roasted vegetables would add delicious variations.
- For extra flavor, add a squeeze of lemon juice or a drizzle of olive oil before serving. A pinch of garam masala adds a nice depth of flavour.
- Make it ahead! This dip tastes even better the next day, so feel free to prepare it in advance.
