Lebanese Yoghurt & Tahini Sauce

The perfect condiment to enjoy with Sprouted Falafel, this sauce is also lovely served as a dip alongside pita bread, fried halloumi, and carrot and cucumber sticks. Or you may decide to lavish your table with bowls and plates of everything named above as well as deep-fried courgette and aubergine, marinated olives, roasted feta, and seasonal salads to create a Middle Eastern mezze feast.
The sumac gives a subtle tangy citrus flavour, and I like to add quite a lot. Sumac is available from most organic shops or any Mediterranean Warehouse. If you can't source any it will be fine to leave it out.
