Nutritional Info Per Serving: N/A
1 cup plain yogurt
2 tbsp. chopped mint leaves (or more to taste)
2-3 cloves garlic, pressed
Salt and pepper, to taste
This salad exists in many variations throughout Sephardic kitchens, this is the way I make it. It is a very refreshing summer salad. If you still have mint left, simply add it to the pitcher when you are making tea, remove after 10-15 minutes, sweeten the tea and chill before serving.
