Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 ripe avocados
  • 100g feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Optional Fresh Herbs

  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, dill, or cilantro

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Avocados: Cut ripe avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a food processor or a bowl. Choose avocados that yield slightly to gentle pressure for a creamy base.
  2. Add Feta and Flavorings: Add crumbled feta cheese along with the minced garlic and fresh lemon juice to the avocado. These provide tanginess and depth of flavor.
  3. Blend Until Smooth: Drizzle in olive oil, then blend or mix the ingredients until you reach a silky, creamy consistency. Season with salt and freshly cracked pepper to taste.
  4. Add Fresh Herbs (Optional): Fold in finely chopped parsley, dill, or cilantro for an herbal burst of freshness and added color.

Notes

  • Use ripe but not overripe avocados for the best creaminess.
  • Fresh lemon juice not only enhances flavor but also prevents browning.
  • Blend just until combined to avoid a watery or oily texture.
  • Add salt gradually, since feta cheese is naturally salty.
  • Chill the dip in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
