spicy cream cheese dip

Whisk the cream cheese with yogurt, tomato paste, and sambal oelek until creamy. Slice the chili pepper lengthwise, remove the seeds, and finely slice the pepper. Crush the garlic (or chop it into tiny cubes—we prefer that) and stir it into the cream along with the chili strips. Add salt if desired. Tastes great on baguette or ciabatta, for example, as a starter.
