Garden Dip

I have a small terrace garden on my 4th floor flat. Where I have planted some herbs : mint, sage, rosemary, tarragon, cilantro, oregano etc.

There herbs are not only good for your health it gives fresh flavor and taste to the food.
This is my own created recipe which goes very well with steamed or fresh vegetables, Grilled, fried or boiled chicken, fish and meat,
or simply with chips, wedges and nachos.

you can spread/serve with burger, sandwiches or crackers

Try to add fresh herbs which are very easy to grow in the planters or you can use dry herbs. Any ways it tastes great.
