This sauce called Tartare is very easy to make and quite light because it uses Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise and this way we can eat a bit more without thinking about calories. Please note that in France I make this sauce using fromage blanc de brebis which resembles to Greek yogurt but it’s lighter and I prefer the one made with sheep’s milk because it’s better. To make the sauce, try to find light Greek yogurt, and even I haven’t made it yet, I can imagine that it will be good because I know very well its taste and texture. Anyhow, this sauce has a strong taste and will bring a sparkling character to your fried dishes! Try it because it worth it! And you too :-)
