Why should you use tartar sauce?
According to nutritionist Ramya B (Chennai Community Nutrition and Health Association, India), the key to making a healthy tartar sauce is: "Stop fat-rich and sodium-rich ingredients with healthier options like Greek yogurt, avocado, cucumber and fresh lemon juice."
Accordingly, instead of using traditional mayonnaise, you can eat low-fat Greek yogurt - a rich source of protein, rich in probiotics and low in calories. In addition, mashed avocado is a great alternative to sour cream because it contains a lot of heart-healthy unsaturated fats. Cucumbers or pickles help create crunchy and natural rich flavor, while fresh lemon juice will add a light, pleasant sourness.

70 ml of low-fat Greek yogurt

How to do:
