Hi bigjack,

Yep I agree with ifindforu recipe above but you can also use a little runny honey instead of sugar (healthier) and you'll find the mint sauce will then have a nice shiney like texture just like most restaurants/takeaways.

Hi Ifindforu

What quantity of yogurt would you use to the recipe you have given?

[ifindforu]

Hi Curry Quenn ,just plain natural yogurt.Not the set one also one can add a very small amount of garlic powder if they like By the way I use the cheapest from Lidols
