Curried Yogurt Dip With Crisp Steamed Broccoli

Start making this dip one day before you plan to serve it, since the yogurt has to drain and thicken overnight. A piece of cheesecloth is needed for the first step of the recipe.

Type: Vegetables
Serves: 6 people

Recipe Ingredients

3 cups 711mlPlain nonfat yogurt
1 1/2 teaspoons 7.5mlOlive oil
2   Garlic cloves - minced
1 1/2 teaspoons 7.5mlCurry powder
3 cups 438g / 15ozBroccoli florets

Recipe Instructions

Line strainer with double-thick layer of cheesecloth, extending over sides; set over deep bowl. Add yogurt to strainer. Chill overnight (liquid will drain from yogurt and yogurt will thicken). Transfer yogurt to small bowl; discard liquid.

Stir oil and garlic in small nonstick skillet over medium heat 30 seconds. Stir in curry powder. Whisk curry mixture into yogurt. Season with salt. Chill at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.

Steam broccoli until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Rinse under cold water. Chill until cold. Serve with dip.
