It doesn’t get easier than that to make a delicious light dip for your dinner table. You can eat it cold with a piece of fresh bread or warm it and use it as a sauce. 

Any type of young cheese for this recipe. You can replace the cottage cheese with ricotta or mascarpone. The texture will be a little bit more velvety than the original.

If you prefer to make it vegan, use vegan yoghurt for smooth texture or tofu for more grainy dip.

• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, minced (optional)
