Creamy avocado sauce recipe

Ingredients:

1 small serrano pepper (approximately 1/2 oz.), stem and seeds removed

1 1/2 teaspoon fresh garlic, minced

1 1/2 tablespoon shallots, minced fine

1/2 cup(s) fresh cilantro, leaves only tightly packed

1 tablespoon Grey Poupon Country Dijon Mustard

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

1 large Hass avocado, pit removed, meat scooped out

1/2 cup(s) sour cream

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1/4 cup(s) water

Instructions:

1. In a blender, combine serrano pepper, garlic, shallots, cilantro, mustard, cumin, avocado, sour cream, lemon juice and water.

2. Blend until smooth. Sauce should have a thickness similar to hollandaise. If needed, add more water 1 tablespoon at a time to thin sauce to desired viscosity.

3. Season to taste and refrigerate until ready to use.

4. Chef’s Note: I like to substitute this sauce for hollandaise on my poached eggs.
