CHEATS
Sour Cream: You can't have sour cream dip without sour cream; make sure you go full fat for the fuller flavour.
Mayonnaise: Get the richest and thickest mayonnaise you can. Don't go for light; stick to the original full-fat mayonnaises.
Fresh Chives: Chives are this dip's heart and soul; be generous and chop very finely.
Lemon: You can't beat freshly squeezed lemon juice; if you have unwaxed lemons, why not grate the lemon peel.

HOW TO MAKE YOUR SOUR CREAM AND CHIVE DIP
1 - Add your Mayonnaise, Sour Cream, freshly chopped Chives and Lemon Juice to a bowl. Season to taste with Sea Salt and mix well.
Pro-Tip: Why not add all your ingredients to a blender, then your sauce will be super smooth and have a green tint.
PRO-fit: Why not grow your chives? Chives are easy to grow – well worth keeping a little pot in the garden or even on a sunny windowsill indoors. Sew chive seeds in pots of compost in early spring, or buy a young chive plant from your local garden centre.
