Hit me with your tastiest dip recipes!

[Stase]

I've said I'll take a dip to a do, but I'm all out of inspiration, and google only turns up houmous or variations of it!

Has anyone got a better one?
No dietary restrictions, other people are taking cold meats and a beetroot salad as far as I know.

TIA

Home made guacamole - one v ripe avocado, handful of coriander, spring onions and squeeze of lemon or lime, blitz in a blender. You can chuck in some dried chilli if you want to but I love it without.

Mackerel pate/dip - smoked mackerel (skin removed), cottage cheese, horseradish sauce (good dollop) and lemon, blitzed in a blender with crack of pepper - so easy to make and tastes so good.

Or there's babaganoush - its abit of a faff to make but tastes great. Nigel Slater has a good recipe you can find online for it.

I love all of those, thanks. The mackerel would be nice with the beetroot salad, I think.

Any more?

This is probably way too simple for what you're after but it's so simple and I love it.

Cheese & chive:

Philadelphia with cracked black pepper, handful of chives chopped and a squirt of lemon juice. Mix it together, add more lemon juice if needed.

Always gets good reviews and I usually have to make a second batch as it goes so quickly.

Sour cream and a packet of french onion soup; stir it all and leave for at least an hour. trust me, it's deeelishus!
I tried it at a friends house decades ago - she is a fabulous cook and always swears by this as the easiest dip ever.

I found this the other day, and wondered what the onion soup reference was, so know I know it's really a 'thing'! Thanks for both of those. I'm thinking something not creamy, to go with parma ham etc, and the goat's cheese in the beetroot salad. Maybe something herby, but not a pesto?
