Time 10 minutes, plus time to chill

Units Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds radishes, preferably with greens attached
  • 1 large avocado, halved and pitted
  • 2 ounces silken tofu (1/4 cup)
  • 1 small bunch fresh cilantro, tender stems and leaves
  • 1 garlic clove, smashed
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 fresh hot chile (like jalapeño), seeded
  • 5 or 6 tomatillos, husks removed
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Scrub the radishes well and trim off the bottoms and greens, leaving about 1 inch of the stems attached if you’re using whole radishes so there’s something to hold when you dip. Put them in the fridge to chill.
  2. Scoop the avocado flesh into a blender and add the tofu, cilantro, garlic, lime juice, chile, tomatillos, and salt in a blender; puree until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides of the container as needed. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
  3. To serve, transfer the mixture to a shallow bowl and serve with the radishes on the side.
