🥣 Masala Dahi Dip Recipe

A cool and spicy Indian-style yogurt dip that’s simple, versatile, and bursting with flavor!

🧂 Ingredients (Serves 3–4)
1 cup thick curd (plain yogurt)

½ tsp roasted cumin powder

½ tsp red chili powder

¼ tsp chaat masala

¼ tsp black salt (kala namak)

Salt to taste

½ tsp ginger paste (optional)

1–2 tsp finely chopped green chilies (adjust to heat level)

1 tbsp finely chopped coriander or mint leaves

1 tsp lemon juice (optional, for extra tang)

Drizzle of mustard oil or olive oil (optional topping)

🥄 Instructions
1. Prepare the Yogurt Base:
Whisk the curd until smooth and creamy.

If using regular curd, you can hang it for 30 minutes to thicken it up.

2. Add the Flavors:
Mix in roasted cumin powder, red chili powder, chaat masala, black salt, and regular salt.

Add ginger paste, green chilies, and herbs (coriander or mint).

Stir well to combine.

3. Optional Enhancements:
Add a dash of lemon juice for brightness.

Drizzle a few drops of mustard oil or olive oil for a smoky or rich finish.

🌶️ Serving Suggestions:
Serve chilled as a dip for pakoras, samosas, kebabs, or tandoori snacks.

Use it as a spread for wraps, rolls, or sandwiches.

Great as a side with pulao, parathas, or grilled veggies.

💡 Tips:
Adjust chili levels to suit your spice preference.

For a smoky version, add a pinch of Welza Smoked Red Chili Powder.

Want it creamy like a Middle Eastern dip? Stir in a spoon of hung curd or Greek yogurt.

🧄 Welza Twist:
Sprinkle a touch of Welza Garlic Powder or Kasuri Methi for added depth. Use Welza Chaat Masala and Whole Roasted Cumin for authentic flavor..
