Ingredients
 

  • 1 cup full fat plain yogurt
  • 1.5 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, more per preference
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, you can use fresh crushed garlic too, adjust amount to your liking
  • 1/4 teaspoon chilli powder, more per preference
  • 2-3 teaspoons lemon juice, more per preference
  • 2 tablespoons tahini, optional

Instructions
 

  • Combine all ingredients in a bowl and whisk together well.
  • If the sauce seizes up and clumps together (specifically after whisking in the tahini), simply continue to whisk and add a few drops of water if required. It will become a smooth sauce.
  • Store in an airtight container for 1-2 weeks. Drizzle on Shawarma!

Notes

  • You can adjust the amount of mayonnaise in this recipe to your liking. More will result in a more decadent sauce.
  • You can skip the tahini if you don't have it.
  • If you like a stronger garlic flavour, add freshly crushed garlic.
