Avocado mayo is a wonderfully rich and creamy alternative to mayonnaise and has all the rejuvenating and antioxidant powers that avocados are famous for.

An easy recipe that you can also make your own by using lime juice instead of lemon, adding a garlic cove or even a pinch of chilli powder.

What can I use it on?

This wonderful creamy avocado mayo can be used in pretty much the same way as you would regular mayo -

• use it in your salads such as coleslaw, pasta, or anything else you can think of
• use it as a spread in your sandwiches or wraps
• spoon over tacos or roasted vegetables
• use it as a dip for crudités or potato wedges or pita bread

What do I need to make my avocado mayo?

• 1 avocado (the flesh should be approximately 250 grams)
• 2 tbsps avocado oil or extra virgin olive oil
• 3 tbsps lemon juice
• 3 tbsps water
• Sea salt

How do I make it?  

1. Cut your avocado into chunks and place it in a blender or small food processor, add your oil, lemon juice, water and a pinch of salt.
2. Blitz until smooth and creamy, it should have the consistency of mayonnaise.
   Add more water or lemon juice if needed.
3. Taste and adjust seasonings according to your taste, you may need to add a bit more lemon juice or salt at this point.

How long does it keep?

Even though avocados have a tendency to go brown we have added lemon juice so you will find that your avocado mayo will keep covered in the fridge for approximately 3-4 days.
