Background

This avocado dip with basil is a bit like guacamole pesto. It tastes very fresh and zingy but it's not spicy at all, so kids can enjoy it too. Ideal for parties or as an appetizer all year round. Serve it as topping on crostini/blini or as a dip with tortilla chips, toasted pita or bread sticks.

Ingredients

3 ripe avocados
Freshly squeezed juice of 1 lemon
3 spring onions, chopped
1 bunch of basil, leaves only
1 clove of garlic, pressed
Ground salt and ground pepper

Instructions

Peel the avocados, then mash the flesh roughly with a fork.
Chop the basil leaves and chop the spring onions (or put them into a small food processor and blend for a few seconds).
Combine the crushed avocado with the chopped basil & spring onions. Add the lemon juice & garlic and season to taste with salt & pepper.
Mix well, but the dip should remain textured not smooth!
