I never would have thought of making a dip out of potatoes, but this Greek spread is delicious and VERY garlicky. I use skordalia as a substitute for hummus. It can be served with almost anything but most traditionally beer battered fish, eggplant or zucchini. My favorite is to use it in a pita sandwich with veggies and meat or falafel (spl?). It is also perfect to bring to a potluck with bread to dip. Ingredients:
3 medium potatoes, mashed |
6 garlic cloves |
1/4 cup olive oil |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt (or to taste depending on broth used) |
pepper |
1/4-1/2 cup chicken broth or 1/4-1/2 cup vegetable broth |
Directions:
1. Press garlic and stir into mashed potatoes. 2. With a fork, beat in oil and lemon juice a few teaspoons at a time. Then do the same with the broth. It should be very smooth and creamy by this point. 3. Salt and pepper to taste. |
