Avocado dip-One of the creamiest dip i ever made at home.Yogurt and lime adds the required sourness while roasted cumin and cilantro makes the dip flavorful.Jalapeno adds a mild spice the dip requires.Overall yogurt blends with the fruit making a rich,creamy and healthy dressing.
Do you know avocado is a fruit ?yeah it is. I thought it as a vegetable ,you too?.I love them in sandwiches ,as a dip.I make chunky guacamole ,when there is leftover of them i make guacamole burritos with kidney bean.Sometimes when i go crazy, i make avocado cake as well.This makes the cake so soft and spongy,if you are worried about the smell, eat the cake next day .Your friends will never find out it's made out of avocado !!!
I hear you saying we don't get avocado in India.I came across an article in Hindu saying that people grow avocado trees in Bangalore.It doesn't need much care except compost, while planting.While checking the prices in India 3-5 fruit cost 140 rs .Everybody can't afford that,but you can eat it once in a while considering its health benefits.
We loved this dip so much added to everything we eat ,like in the sandwiches, with salt biscuit.Still some more left may be i can eat as is ..So yummy..
For those who want to know the nutrition fact :Avocado fruit has high vitamin c and has high fiber,vitamin b6 and Iron content with more healthy fats.So what are you waiting ?enjoy making this quick,creamy dip.
This is my recreation of subway avocado dressing on their footlong sandwiches .

Tip:
- Choose a ripe /soft avocado if you want to make the dip the same day otherwise buy a hard one and make it ripe by simply placing it on the counter.Don't keep it in fridge.
- If you want a dressing then add buttermilk along with yogurt according to the consistency you require.In this case you can skip olive oil.
