Preparation
Step 1
Place the avocado, cilantro, lime juice, mayonnaise, and salt in the bowl of a food processor and puree until smooth. If your sauce is too thick, add water, ½ tablespoon at a time, to thin it to your desired consistency. Season to taste with more salt as needed.
Step 2
If you don't have a food processor, place the avocado, cilantro, lime juice, mayonnaise, and salt in a medium bowl, and use a fork or potato masher to mash until the ingredients are combined. If you prefer a thinner sauce, add water, ½ tablespoon at a time, to thin it to your desired consistency. Season to taste.

Chef's notes
*You can taste the mayo here, so make sure to use a good one. I recommend Sir Kensington's Classic Mayonnaise or Avocado Oil Mayonnaise. Vegan mayo works here too!
