Treat your ingredients with care...
- Yogurt — Use thick yogurt for a creamy texture. If the yogurt is too watery, strain it through a cheesecloth or a fine-mesh sieve to remove excess liquid.
- Tripuri spice blend — You can make your own Tripuri spice blend by combining equal parts cumin, coriander, and red chili powder. Adjust the spice levels according to your preference.
- Fresh herbs — Use fresh coriander and mint leaves for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs, you can substitute with dried herbs, but reduce the quantity by half.
Tips & Tricks
- For a spicier version, add a pinch of Tripuri red chili powder or a dash of hot sauce.
- Let the Tripuri Haydari sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve with warm pita bread or naan for a delicious combination.
- Customize the dip by adding finely chopped cucumbers or roasted red peppers for extra flavor and texture.
- If you prefer a smoother texture, blend the ingredients in a food processor or blender until creamy.
