Cherry tomatoes and garlic dip has a tangy flavor with a perfect balance of sweetness and spiciness. It is easy and very quick to cook. I have used cherry tomatoes as they are sweeter than regular tomatoes. Do not skip vinegar as it really enhances the flavor.
At home, we simply loved this dip with nachos. You can use it as an accompaniment for several other dishes, be it paratha or some snack.
