yogurt sauce
Tangy dairy topping
Yogurt sauce is a condiment made from yogurt, typically mixed with herbs, garlic, cucumber, or spices.
It appears across Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and South Asian cuisines—Greek tzatziki, Indian raita, and Turkish cacık are regional variations.
The tangy, creamy sauce accompanies grilled meats, falafel, rice dishes, and flatbreads: The lamb came with a cool yogurt sauce on the side.
