Method

  1. 01Add the garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and ice water to a blender. Blend 20–30 seconds so the garlic breaks down first.
  2. 02Add the Greek yogurt and blend just until smooth.
  3. 03Taste after 5 minutes. The garlic will keep blooming, so don't overcorrect too early.
  4. 04Transfer to an airtight container and chill at least 30 minutes before serving.
  5. 05Weigh the final sauce if you want exact portions, then divide by 10.

Notes from the kitchen

This is intentionally garlic-forward. If you want it more mellow, use 18g garlic instead of 24g — but keep the lemon. For a thicker sauce, skip the ice water at first and add it only after blending. Storage: Store covered in the fridge up to 5 days. Don't freeze — yogurt sauces split after thawing. Don't microwave. Add cold after reheating the main dish. Pairs well with: shawarma bowls, grilled chicken, roasted potatoes, turkey burgers, or any meal prep container that needs a punchy sauce instead of another sad drizzle of hot sauce.
