* Garlic Yoghurt Dip
Garlic gives a delicious taste to all sorts of food be it naan, dips, parathas, curries or anything. To make this refreshing and appetising dip, one has to take some Parmesan cheese and some lemon juice to give it a zesty and refreshing flavour. Fried foods are generally very dry and make one thirsty instantly. This is why it is always nice to pair a good refreshing dip with fried food that compliments its dryness and doesn't make one extremely dehydrated.
* Cucumber Yoghurt Dip
Cucumber yoghurt dip is also extremely hydrating and refreshing. It is a perfect dip for summer when one needs that extra dose of refreshment and hydration. Both of the ingredients are very light and can be used to make this scrumptious dip. One will also need some fresh dill to make the dip. Instead of using cucumber, one can also go for zucchini but remember that the taste will be very different. This is the perfect dip that can be paired with some onion rings or potato wedges. To give the dip some extra flavours, a person may add herbs of their choice.
* Tzatziki
