Avocado Cream

Avocado Cream is a delicious spread made with avocado, sour cream and a few basic ingredients. It tastes great with toasted bread. In this post, I have shared two variants of this recipe. The first is a basic one, and the second has more ingredients. You will understand it better as you read the recipes.

Equipment Needed:

The first step is to grind avocados and sour cream to a fine paste. For that, you need a mixer. Once the paste is ready, you transfer it to a mixing bowl, in which you combine it with a few more ingredients. All the vegetables that are added to the paste must be finely chopped. If you have good chopping skills, a good-quality knife and cutting board will do. I prefer using a food processor. It makes things fast and is perfect for finely chopping vegetables.

• 2 Medium-Sized Ripe Avocados

Some Notes about Ingredient Sourcing in Germany:

• Avocados: In Germany, you can buy them individually or in a pack of 3-4. I prefer buying the pack because, in terms of cost, the pack is more reasonable. Buy the ones that are green and firm. After bringing them home, remove them from their packaging and let them rest in your fruit basket at room temperature for a few days. Check them every day. Then the skin darkens, and they feel soft; they are ready to be consumed. Cut them from the middle, remove the seed and separate the flesh from the peel with a spoon. It comes out quite easily. Then, mash/chop the fruit as per your preference.
  
• Sour Cream: I used Schmand with 24% Fat. You can learn more about cream-based products in Germany here.
  
• Onion, Tomatoes, Paprika and Lemon: They are all easily available in supermarkets in Germany.
  
• Fresh Coriander Leaves: Available in Indian and Turkish shops in Germany.
  
• Salt and Red Chilli Flakes: All are available in supermarkets in Germany. Read my article about Salt here.
  
• Extra Virgin Olive Oil: Called natives Olivenöl extra. Easily available in supermarkets. Read my article about Oils here.
  
• Pickled Jalapeños and Gherkins: Available in all supermarkets. They look like these:
