During lockdown, a routine has become even more important than usual. Even though we now work in the same house we have started having an after work catch-up. We sit the back porch in a (now) very quiet village, and chat about our day. During this time we like to have a wee snack and our new favourite is Avocado Whip and Radishes. Smooth, fresh and zesty with a hint of chilli, the perfect dip for fresh crunchy radishes or other crudite such as spicy pickled turnips or lacto fermented carrots .
Avocado whip is a great way to use up a soft avocado or make one go further. Add some freshly chopped herbs for a delicious green dressing.
