Green Sauce With Avocado

1. 1

   In a food processor or with mortar and pestle, process or pound the garlic and salt to a paste.

2. 2

   Add onion, chilies and tomatillos; pulse in processor or pound to make a slightly chunky paste.

3. 3

   Scoop out the avocado flesh.

4. 4

   For a smooth machine-finished puree, add it and the cilantro to the processor and process very fine.

5. 5

   To do it by hand, finely chop the avocado and mash it into the onion-tomatillo mixture; stir in cilantro leaves.

6. 6

   (For a medium texture, pour the machine-processed onion-tomatillo mixture into a bowl, and mix in the chopped avocado and cilantro.)

7. 7

   Serve immediately as a dip or a sauce with chips or vegetables.
