Mexican Inspired

Here is a recipe from our good friend's at Blanco Niño using their sublime corn chips which are available to order here online!

We’re quite partial to a creamy avocado but sometimes it’s not easy to find an avocado that’s just right. So why not swap it for an unassuming freezer staple? 

Ingredients

This recipe makes about 620g or a big sharing bowl of dip.

 450g or a pack of frozen peas

2 tbsp or 30g of tahini  

½ cup or 15g of coriander, sliced

½ cup or 15g of mint, sliced

The zest of 1 lime

The juice of 2 limes

⅔ tbsp or 10g of extra virgin olive oil

2 tbsp or 30g of water
