1
Prepare the Yogurt
In a large mixing bowl, add the 2 cups of thick yogurt. Ensure that the yogurt is smooth and creamy.

Chop the Mint
Wash the fresh mint leaves thoroughly and pat them dry with a towel. Finely chop the mint leaves and add them to the yogurt.
3
Add Seasonings
Sprinkle 2 teaspoons of sumac and 1 teaspoon of salt over the yogurt mixture. Mix well to combine all the ingredients together.
4
Drizzle Olive Oil
Finally, drizzle 3 tablespoons of olive oil over the top of the mixture. You can reserve a little olive oil for serving if desired.
5
Mix and Serve
Stir the mixture gently until all ingredients are well incorporated. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Transfer to a serving bowl and drizzle with additional olive oil before serving.
