This is a great tasting and healthy dip that works well with absolutely anything. Put it on rice, kabobs, etc. or just eat it with bread, chips, or by itself. Really refreshing and light!

    this is how my grandmother always made maast-o-khiar, it's not the most traditional way to make it but I think it's tastier than just yogurt and cucumbers by themselves. The walnuts give it an extra crunch.
    Yo he cocinado/probado esta receta

      I love this salad, very refreshing, sometimes, I add just a bit of fresh garlic. Probably not too authentic then. =)

        This looks like a very interesting twist on the traditional yogurt/cucumber dip. Can't wait to try it!
