Yield Makes 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 ripe avocado
1/4 cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves
1 small clove garlic, peeled
Juice of 2 limes
3 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
1/2 cup olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Slice avocado lengthwise. Remove and discard pit and peel, and place flesh in the bowl of a food processor. Add basil, garlic, lime juice, and vinegar; process until combined. Slowly add olive oil through the machine's feed tube, and process until the dressing is smooth. It should have a thick but pourable consistency; give an extra squeeze or two on the limes to adjust consistency. Season with salt and pepper, and use immediately.
