    120 g Greek Yoghurt, 60 g mayonnaise, 30 g tahini, ½ lemon, ½ tsp salt, ½ tsp ground black pepper, ½ tsp garlic granules, ¼ tsp ground cumin

Notes

Ingredients
  1. Yoghurt - A good thick full fat Greek yoghurt to give the sauce some body
  2. Mayonnaise - Your favourite everyday brand - nothing too fancy 
  3. Tahini - if it has separated stir well; getting to the bottom of the jar, to recombine
  4. Garlic - I far prefer using garlic granules as the sauce will keep for longer. You can use finely minced fresh garlic, but then eat the sauce within 2 days. 
Storage
Transfer to a jar and keep in the fridge, and eat within 3-5 days.  
Allow to come to room temperature before serving.
