Avocado dip with new potatoes
This creamy avocado dip transforms humble new potatoes into something unexpectedly sophisticated. The Australian approach swaps traditional sour cream for tangy yoghurt, lightening the dip while keeping its richness intact. Toasting the cumin seeds before grinding releases their warmth, creating complexity that fresh lime and lemon brighten without overwhelming. It's the kind of dish that works equally well at a casual barbecue or as an elegant appetizer, proof that restraint and quality ingredients matter more than fussy technique.
Instructions
step 1 Whizz half the avocado flesh with the yogurt, lime and lemon juice and seasoning.
Dice the remaining avocado, then gently stir into the whizzed mix with most of the lime zest.
Cover, then chill until ready to serve. step 2 Boil potatoes for 6 mins, then drain well and toss with olive oil, chilli powder and cumin seeds.
Now set aside until half an hour before your guests arrive. step 3 Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6, then roast potatoes for about 30 mins, shaking the tray halfway, until golden and tender.
Transfer the dip to one or two bowls, scatter with the remaining lime zest and serve with the hot potatoes, and tortilla chips for dipping..
