This easy Creamy Garlic Sauce gets its thick, smooth texture from boiled potato, so it needs only a small amount of mayonnaise. Fresh garlic and black pepper keep the flavor simple and savory. It is especially good alongside Lemon Garlic Grilled Chicken.

Creamy Garlic Sauce

Ingredients

  • ½ cup boiled potato
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • 1 cup yogurt
  • 1–1½ tbsp mayonnaise
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • Salt, to taste

Instructions

  1. Blend: Add the boiled potato, garlic cloves, yogurt, mayonnaise, black pepper and salt to a blender.
  2. Make it creamy: Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
  3. Taste: Taste and adjust the salt if needed.
  4. Serve: Serve with Lemon Garlic Grilled Chicken or use as a dip or drizzle.

Why Add Potato?

The boiled potato helps give the sauce a thick, creamy texture without needing a large amount of mayonnaise.
