If I had to guess, I think that on average 95 percent of most recipes start with garlic and onion. “Chop the garlic and onion…” and then that smell in your kitchen! However, garlic can be just a little too sharp for some people. I have a handy trick for that: roasting! Make a delicious garlic sauce. garlic herb dip
If you roast the garlic in the oven, it will lose its pungent taste. The cloves will "shrivel" a little in their skins and a soft puree will be hidden in them. You just have to squeeze or push it out with a knife. Perfect for this roasted garlic herb dip!
Roasted garlic herb dip
And what can you use this roasted garlic herb dip for? Well, think about your drinks platter. I made this recipe in collaboration with a cracker manufacturer who has once again launched a delicious product on the market. Namely those nice crackers that you see in the photo. Ideal as a snack, with a drinks platter or what do you think of your child's lunch box. So a nice healthy snack.
This dip is not only delicious as a snack, but can also be used as a sauce for other dishes. For example, you can make a delicious tortilla with it. Spread a tortilla with the puffed garlic-herb dip and top it up with your favorite ingredients, such as cheese, vegetables, meat or fish. Roll up the tortilla and bake it briefly in the oven or in a frying pan. This way you have an easy and tasty meal!
But you can also use this dip as a meat sauce at a BBQ. It goes well with grilled chicken, pork or beef. You can also put the dip in a pita bread, along with some lettuce, tomato and fried chicken. That's a nice lunch or snack!
This is a nice basic recipe that you can further expand to your own taste. For example, add a pepper for some spice, or ras-el-hanout for a Mediterranean touch. You can also use other herbs, such as chives, parsley, or basil. Experiment and discover your own favorite garlic sauce combination!
