1 ripe avocado
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup milk
1 tsp. minced onion
1 clove garlic, mashed to a pulp with 1/4 tsp. salt
1 tbsp. minced fresh cilantro or 1/4 tsp. dried cilantro
1/2 tsp. hot pepper sauce (or to taste)
2 to 3 tbsp. fresh lemon juice

Peel avocado and mash to a smooth pulp. Add sour cream, milk, onion, garlic, cilantro, pepper sauce and lemon juice. Blend with a wire whip. (Actually I use the blender.)

Let stand at least an hour before serving. Refrigerate any leftover sauce.
