Marinated Tomatoes with Greek Yogurt Sauce

This is a delicious appetizer or snack, as well as healthy and fresh. Yogurt pairs well with both sweet and savory flavors, and in this case, it's seasoned with garlic and oregano to accompany the marinated cherry tomatoes. Pomegranate syrup can be found in Turkish or Lebanese food stores. I adapted the recipe from Posh Plate.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prepare the ingredients. Cut the tomatoes in half. Heat a little water, and when it boils, turn off the heat and place the garlic clove in it for a minute to remove the raw taste.
- 2
Finely chop the basil to make about one tablespoon. Place in a bowl with the tomatoes. Cut the garlic in half and remove the germ to reduce its strong flavor. I don't eat much garlic, but if you like it, you can leave it. Press half over the tomatoes and set aside the other half.
- 3
Add the pomegranate syrup, olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix well and let marinate for five to ten minutes while preparing the yogurt sauce.
- 4
Place the yogurt in a bowl, press the other half of the garlic, and season with oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix very well. Pour onto a large plate and form a circle.
- 5
Place the marinated tomatoes on top and pour the juices over them. Serve with melba toast or your preferred crackers.

Chilled Spaghetti with Basil Sauce and Yogurt Chilled Spaghetti with Basil Sauce and Yogurt
Basil sauce itself doesn't blend well with the pasta, but I didn't want to add so much oil.That's why I experimented with mixing in yogurt. It surprisingly added a rich flavor to the sauce and it was quite tasty.This dish is also great as a side dish for a richer main dish!Please leave out the lemon juice if you're not a fan of tart food.Taste the basil sauce beforehand and adjust the amount of salt and pepper for the seasoning.Squeeze with a cloth or paper towel and drain it well. For 1 serving. Recipe by Nanamama cookpad.japan -
