This was fine. I used Greek yogurt, as suggested by another reviewer, and the texture was great. I used my favorite garam masala blend, but found the taste of the dip to be flat. I tried adding lime juice and garlic, but didn't really like this as a stand alone dip. I used leftovers as a sandwich spread with sauteed mushrooms and onions, red pepper, and tomato. That worked pretty well. I served this to friends who came over and there was quite a bit left over. It was bad, but it wasn't really good, either. Hence the three stars. If I take a chance on this again, I would probably add more garlic and some jalapeno.
