Ingredients
  

  • 1 avocado
  • 40 g cilantro coriander
  • ¼ lime or lemon juiced
  • 1 small green chilli
  • 5 tablespoons Greek yoghurt
  • 1 clove garlic softneck
  • ¼ teaspoon cumin powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Add 1 avocado, 40 g cilantro (plus stems!), ¼ lime or lemon (juiced), 1 small green chilli, 5 tablespoons Greek yoghurt, 1 clove garlic (peeled), ¼ teaspoon cumin powder, and ¼ teaspoon salt to a blender. Blend to a smooth, thick, and creamy sauce.
  • If you're using the sauce as a dressing, not a spread or dip, you may want it thinner. In which case, add cold water 1 teaspoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency.

Notes

To protect the avocado cilantro sauce from browning during storage, press cling film or reusable food wrap directly onto the sauce, and keep it airtight.
