Use a fully ripe avocado — an underripe one blends grainy instead of silky smooth. Add the thinning water gradually, since it's easy to over-thin such a small batch.
Instructions:
- Combine: Combine the avocado, lime juice, water, olive oil, garlic, cilantro, salt, and cumin in a blender.
- Blend: Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
- Thin to Consistency: Add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dressing reaches your desired consistency.
- Adjust: Taste and adjust lime juice or salt as needed.
- Store: Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, as fresh avocado will brown over time.
Notes: Read through the full recipe before starting so you have all ingredients prepped and ready to go.
Tips: Taste as you go and adjust seasoning to your preference before serving.
Storage: Store in a sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to a week; shake well before using as it may separate.
Swaps: Feel free to swap in seasonal vegetables or pantry staples you have on hand, adjusting cook time as needed.
This recipe leans on a handful of key ingredients to get its flavor and texture right. The ripe avocado adds a buttery creaminess and healthy fat. The lime juice adds acidity that brightens and balances the dish. The olive oil brings fruity depth and helps carry the other flavors. The clove garlic builds a savory, aromatic base.
