Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 ripe avocados
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 1 clove garlic
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 2 ripe avocados, 1/2 cup of fresh cilantro, 1/4 cup of lime juice, 1 clove of garlic, and salt.
- Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl using a spoon.
- Peel the garlic clove and add it to the bowl with the avocado.
- Rinse the fresh cilantro under cold water to remove any dirt or debris, then pat it dry with a paper towel. Add the cilantro leaves to the mixing bowl.
- Pour in the 1/4 cup of lime juice, which will not only add flavor but also help prevent the avocados from browning.
- Using a fork or a potato masher, mash the ingredients together until you reach your desired consistency. You can make it smooth or leave it a bit chunky, depending on your preference.
- Season the sauce with salt to taste. Start with a small pinch and adjust as needed, mixing well after each addition.
- Once the sauce is well combined and seasoned, taste it to ensure the flavors are balanced. You can add more lime juice or salt if necessary.
- Transfer the avocado green sauce to a serving bowl or an airtight container if you’re not serving it immediately.
- This sauce can be served immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To help keep it fresh, press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the sauce before sealing the container.
Tips
- • Choose ripe avocados that yield slightly when gently pressed to ensure maximum creaminess • Use fresh lime juice for the brightest, most vibrant flavor • For extra smoothness, use a blender instead of mashing by hand • If not serving immediately, press plastic wrap directly onto the sauce's surface to prevent browning • Experiment with adding a jalapeño or green chili for a spicy kick • This sauce is best consumed within 1-2 days for optimal freshness and flavor
