RUCH'S RICH HUNG CURD DIP

If we’re not willing to settle for junk living, we certainly shouldn’t settle for junk food. - Sally Edwards

We've made this dip for a bunch of parties this summer and it never lasts very long. It's made of very conveniently found ingredients, is vegetarian and delicious. If you don't have capsicum on hand use something else that's green or crunchy. As you can see from the picture - I used coriander and pomegranate.

Don't knock it till you try it.

The one to the left.

Serves 4
Recipe from Ruchira Goel

What you'll need

1 ½ cups hung curd
 
Note: The easiest way to make hung curd is to wash one of those felt type grocery bags we get these days (since the plastic ones got banned) and throw the curd in there. Loop the handles of the bag over something that sticks out and let the curd drain. Also, store bought curd is much denser than home made curd so if you know you're going to be throwing a party then pick up a couple of packs of curd when you're doing your party shopping. This will give you a richer texture and not waste as much whey.
 
1 red/ yellow/ green capsicum (chopped into little pieces)
Dash of tobasco
1 ½ tsp chilli powder
Salt and pepper

How to:

Throw everything together, stir well, chill and serve.

Sounds yum...mom makes a similar one, without red chilli (because, you know what my spice tolerance is like) but with oregano and (i think) some spring onion
