Description: I've tried store bought dips and tried numerous times to "get it right" to no avail, until given this recipe by a Mexican friend of mine who used to own her own restaurant. It's as good as they come, but you need to "cure" it in the fridge for a while so it picks up the flavor of all the ingredients.
Ingredients:
2 -4 ripe avocados (depending on quantity)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
hot sauce (Tabasco or similar)
salt
1 -2 white onion, diced
3 -4 tomatoes, diced
Steps:
Peel avocados and blenderize them in a blender or food processor until creamy.
Add diced onion and tomato, stirring well.
Add salt, hot sauce and lemon juice in small amounts, stirring frequently and thoroughly, until the dip is tangy and snappy to your taste. Be especially careful not to add too much salt or too much lemon.
Refrigerate for at least six hours, overnight would be best.
