Equipment
- 1 Blender

- 1.5 tbsp lime juice
- 1 tsp garlic minced
- 1 tsp sugar
- salt and pepper to taste
- water optional, for desired consistency
Instructions
- Begin by washing and roughly chopping the fresh cilantro. Removing thick stems will give the sauce a smoother texture.
- In a blender, combine cilantro, sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice, and garlic.
- Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. If the sauce is too thick, add a tablespoon of water at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
- Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
- Transfer the sauce to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavours to develop.
