Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium bowl.
- Mash the avocados with a fork until they achieve a slightly chunky consistency.
- Add the lime juice to the mashed avocados to prevent browning and to enhance flavor.
- Fold in the finely chopped coriander leaves. Mix well to combine evenly.
- Spread the avocado mixture evenly on the bottom of a serving dish or a shallow bowl. This will be the first layer of your Christmas dip.
- Carefully spoon the sour cream over the avocado layer. Use a spatula to spread the sour cream evenly to cover the avocado mix completely.
- Pour the salsa sauce over the sour cream layer. Use the back of a spoon or a spatula to spread it out evenly. Make sure the salsa layer is well-distributed over the sour cream.
- Finally, sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the salsa layer.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the layers to set and the flavors to meld together.
- Serve chilled with tortilla chips, crackers, or vegetable sticks.
Tips:
- Use ripe avocados for the best flavor and texture.: Check if the avocados are ripe by gently pressing them; they should yield slightly under pressure.
- Prevent browning in the avocados.: Mix the avocado with lime juice immediately after mashing to prevent it from turning brown.
- Customize the dip to your taste.: Feel free to add extra toppings such as chopped tomatoes, olives, or jalapenos for an added burst of flavor and texture.
- Serve with a variety of dippers.: This dip goes well with tortilla chips, sliced veggies, or even crusty bread.
