delicious and refreshing dip, to be paired with spicy rice dishes and kebabs
I have a deep love for this dip. Yoghurt and herb dips are always served at Iranian banquets. This one is best served with rice or salty crackers. If you can’t find dried mint at your local shop, by all means, use fresh mint instead.
