Add a gourmet twist to your Diwali celebrations with wholesome, flavour-packed dips that balance indulgence with nutrition. Each one pairs beautifully with festive favourites, from baked samosas to multigrain crackers.
This creamy yet light dip blends protein-rich Greek yoghurt with fresh dill, parsley, garlic, and a dash of lime. It’s a refreshing alternative to calorie-heavy mayonnaise-based sauces and pairs perfectly with grilled tikkas or roasted sweet potato bites.
A creamy fusion of ripe avocado, coriander, lime, and green chilli, this dip offers healthy fats and antioxidants while adding a vibrant, herby freshness. Serve it alongside air-fried kachoris or quinoa cutlets for a modern festive twist.
Earthy, slightly sweet, and visually stunning, this hummus combines chickpeas, roasted beetroot, tahini, and lemon juice for a nutrient-rich treat. It’s high in fibre and iron, making it both delicious and energising, ideal for dipping wholegrain pita or veggie sticks.
A cooling classic reimagined for the health-conscious, this dip features thick yoghurt, fresh mint, cucumber, and a touch of cumin. It complements spicy chaats and kebabs while aiding digestion after a festive feast.
Inspired by coastal flavours, this protein-packed dip brings together roasted peanuts, grated coconut, lime, and red chilli. The result is a zesty, nutty concoction that adds depth to baked pakoras or vegetable skewers.
