CRUDITéS WITH GRILLED GREEN GODDESS DIP



Crudités With Grilled Green Goddess Dip image

When you're grilling, you might expect grilled vegetables with a straightforward dip, but here I've paired just-cooked vegetables with a grilled dip.

Provided by Eric Werner

Categories     Dip     Vegetarian     Vegetable     Grill/Barbecue     Grill     Avocado     Tomatillo     Jalapeño     Chile Pepper     Lime     Basil

Yield Serves 6 to 8; makes about 2 cups of dip

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 ripe avocados
Oil, for coating
5 large tomatillos, peeled and rinsed
2 jalapeño chiles, stemmed, halved lengthwise, and seeded
2 tablespoons roasted garlic (see Note)
Juice of 2 limes (about 1⁄4 cup)
1 cup basil leaves
1 1⁄2 teaspoons salt
An assortment of lightly charred vegetables, such as asparagus, jicama, fennel, snap peas, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, baby carrots, and endive, for serving

Steps:

  • Wipe the grill grates with oil to prevent sticking. Build a medium-heat fire. Your medium-heat zone should have embers 3 to 5 inches from the cooking surface.
  • To make the dip: Cut the avocados in half and remove the pits. Cut again so the avocados are quartered. Keeping the skin on, coat the flesh sides with oil and grill each flesh side over medium heat for about 60 seconds, or until there are nice grill marks. Set aside.
  • Coat the tomatillos and jalapeños with oil and grill over medium heat on all sides until charred but not blackened, about 5 minutes total.
  • Remove and discard the skins from the avocados. Add the avocados, tomatillos, jalapeños, garlic, lime juice, basil, and salt to a blender and puree until very smooth. The dip can be made up to 2 days in advance and stored, covered, in the refrigerator.
  • Cut the larger vegetables, such as fennel and jicama, into pieces that are slightly larger than bite size and keep the smaller vegetables, such as asparagus, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, baby carrots, and endive, whole. Arrange the vegetables on a platter and serve with the dip.

¼ cup sour cream
¼ cup parsely, finely chopped
¼ cup chives, finely chopped
2 T onion, minced
2 tsp garlic, minced

Steps:

  • Directions 1. Combine Ingredients in a bowl until completely blended. Chill. A couple of notes on this recipe - If you are watching your diet, I recommend using Neufchatel cheese rather than low fat cream cheese. I have tried it with low fat cream cheese and the results were pretty disappointing. Whatever you do - don't go with fat free. You are better off skipping it all together.

GREEN GODDESS SPINACH DIP

Are you all as devastated as ME about the death of *Gourmet* magazine? I could weep. Luckily, I have a near-complete collection of issues going back to 'way before I was born, so I can live on those the rest of my life! This recipe (of course I've fiddled a little with it) was on the last page of the last issue, and even my husband, not usually a big fan of creamy dips, keeps getting it out of the fridge and eating it cold with pita crisps. Best served warm, though...

6 scallions, chopped

Tips:

  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs add a vibrant flavor to the dip. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount.
  • Don't over-process the dip: Over-processing the dip will make it lose its texture and become too smooth. Pulse the ingredients in the food processor just until they are combined.
  • Serve the dip immediately or store it in the refrigerator for later: The dip is best served immediately, but it can also be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If you are storing the dip, be sure to cover it tightly with plastic wrap.
  • Garnish the dip with additional herbs and vegetables: When serving the dip, garnish it with additional herbs and vegetables, such as chopped chives, parsley, cilantro, or diced cucumbers.

Conclusion:

Green goddess dip is a versatile and delicious dip that can be served with a variety of snacks and appetizers. It is also a great make-ahead dip, making it perfect for parties and gatherings.
