Spicy Asian Spinach Dip

⏱ 15 mins 🍽 2 1/2 cups, 5-10 serving(s) 🏷 Asian

This zesty dip originated from a happy accident using bok choy instead of spinach. It combines sweet chilli sour cream with mayonnaise, sautéed bok choy, spring onions and fresh coriander for a punchy flavour. The mixture is blended until smooth, then chilled to thicken. It's ideal for scooping up with pieces of sourdough bread, optionally served in a hollowed-out loaf.

Spicy Asian Spinach Dip

Ingredients

  • 1 cup sweet chili light sour cream
  • 1 cup bok choy
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/3 cup spring onion
  • 3 tablespoons coriander
  • 1 tablespoon cooking oil
  • sourdough bread (optional)

Method

  1. Rinse the bok choy, then chop it, removing the stems.
  2. Cook the chopped bok choy in oil until it softens completely and loses its crispness, which takes about 5 mins.
  3. Finely chop the spring onions.
  4. Chop the fresh coriander.
  5. Combine the onions, cooked bok choy, sour cream, mayonnaise and coriander in a bowl. Blend them together using an immersion blender or a food processor.
  6. Refrigerate the dip for 1 hour, as chilling gives it a thicker consistency. It can be served immediately but may be slightly runny.
  7. Transfer the dip to a hollowed sourdough loaf if desired, and offer bread pieces for dipping.
