Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the walnuts

    Toast the walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are golden and fragrant. Remove from heat and let them cool.

  2. 2

    Make the garlic paste

    Mince the garlic cloves finely and sprinkle a little salt on top. Use the side of a knife to mash them into a paste.

  3. 3

    Combine ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, garlic paste, chopped fresh dill, and olive oil. Mix well until everything is fully incorporated.

  4. 4

    Add walnuts

    Chop the toasted walnuts coarsely and fold them into the yogurt mixture. Adjust seasoning with additional salt if needed.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Transfer the Labana extra to a serving bowl and garnish with a few extra walnuts and dill on top. Serve with pita bread or as a dip for vegetables.
