Persian Shallot Yogurt Dip (Mast-O Musir)

This Persian shallot yogurt dip is amazing, tangy, and delicious!

Ingredients you need

Persian shallots, plain yogurt, mint, kosher salt, black pepper, cucumbers, pita chips

Step 1

In a bowl or container, add in your dried shallots. Pour over water and soak your shallots, for 4 hours to overnight in the fridge, not exceeding 24 hours. 

Step 2

Once they’re soft and soaked, rinse and dry completely with a paper towel. Finely dice your dried shallots and place in a medium bowl.

Step 3

In the same bowl, add in your yogurt, salt, pepper, dried mint, and we’re adding a pinch of cumin as well but that’s totally optional too. Mix and serve.

Step 4

Top with fresh mint, a little dried mint as well, and edible flowers (optional). Serve with your favorite veggies or bread of choice (we’re using toasted sangkak!)
