Ingredients
  

Base Ingredients
  • ½ cup mayonnaise Ensure it’s Halal-compliant.
  • 3 tablespoons sour cream Adds creaminess and tang.
Flavor Components
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced For that strong garlic flavor.
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped For garnish and freshness.
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice A splash for that zing!
  • ½ teaspoon salt Adjust according to taste.
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper For a hint of spice.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Mince the garlic cloves and chop the parsley finely. Measuring everything in advance will make the mixing process easier.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise and sour cream. Mix them until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add the minced garlic to the bowl. Mix well, ensuring the garlic is evenly distributed throughout the sauce.
  4. Pour in the lemon juice and mix again; this adds a fresh zip to your garlic sauce.
  5. Finally, add salt and black pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning to your preference.
  6. Stir in the chopped parsley. For best results, let the sauce chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
  7. Serve it alongside your favorite pizza or use it as a drizzle. Enjoy!

Notes

Substitutions: Feel free to substitute mayonnaise with Greek yogurt for a healthier option. Just ensure it’s Halal-friendly! Garlic Preference: The amount of garlic can be adjusted based on your personal taste. More garlic means a punchier flavor! Whipping it Up: If you prefer a smoother sauce, blend the ingredients using a food processor instead of just mixing by hand. Avoiding Common Mistakes: Be cautious with fresh garlic. Always mince it finely to prevent any large, overpowering bites of garlic.
