Crema de Aguacate

Ingredients

  • 1 avocado
  • 1/4 onion, diced
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1/2 serrano or 1 jalapeño
  • 2 sprigs cilantro
  • 5 black peppercorns
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • Salt, to taste
  • 1 tomato, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro, finely chopped

Instructions

  • In a blender, mix avocado, onion, garlic, serrano, cilantro, peppercorns, and cream, then add 2 cups of broth. Blend until very smooth. Taste and correct the seasoning with salt. Place in the refrigerator until serving time. This dish is best served the day it is made because it will start to discolor if kept overnight.
  • Garnish with chopped tomato and cilantro.
