From 'A Year in my Kitchen' by Skye Gyngell, this should taste vibrant and stronger than houmous, great for dips also as a side dish with roasted lamb or grilled chops.

150 g fresh coriander
150 g fresh mint leaves, only

2 tablespoons greek yogurt
1 1/2 teaspoons roasted mixed spice
50 ml extra virgin olive oil

2. Place in a blender with the garlic and chilli, chop the coriander and mint and place into blender, add rest of ingredients and blend to a puree, do not over blend.
