Directions
1Pour broth or stock into a medium saucepan and add the cauliflower.
2Cover and bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to simmer and cook until cauliflower is very tender, about 10-12 minutes; set aside.
3Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
4Add sliced onion, minced garlic, paprika, pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring often, until onion is translucent, about 3 minutes.
5Increase heat to medium-high and cook, stirring often, until the onion and garlic are golden brown, about 5 minutes more.
6Transfer spiced onion mixture to a blender.
7Add yogurt, lemon zest and juice, cooked cauliflower, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and purée until smooth.
8With the motor running, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a steady stream until thoroughly combined.
9If you’d like the dip to be thinner, add the bone broth or veggie stock that the cauliflower was cooked in a tablespoon at a time until it reaches the desired consistency.
10Let dip cool to room temperature before serving with veggies. The dip also makes a great topping for grilled chicken or fish.
11Any remaining dip can be refrigerated, covered, for up to 5 days.
