Tahini Yogurt Dressing

This easy no-cook Tahini Yogurt Dressing is a flavour bomb which takes a simple garlic, coriander sauce and ramps it up a notch with the tang of sesame paste. In even better news, it’s so versatile that it’s equally at home with Indian, Mexican and Middle Eastern inspired dishes.

I am already obsessed with yogurt sauce. I use my coriander mint yogurt sauce on everything as it is. But when I created a mezze feast with griddled courgettes and bell peppers, quick pickled red onions and couscous salad, I couldn’t resist creating a tahini spiked version.

I love to use za’atar – a middle eastern spice mix at any opportunity and it makes an ideal garnish for this sauce/dressing. It’s available pretty much everywhere now so please do pick some up and try it if you haven’t already.

I called this recipe a dressing but really it is just as useful as a dip and a sauce. So make up a slightly larger batch and keep it in the fridge for up to a week and use it every day. I guarantee you’ll want to!
