Ingredients list for the avocado dressing sauce

• 1 small shallot
• 1 tablespoon of white wine vinegar
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 handful of mixed fresh herbs (tarragon, parsley, chervil, coriander, dill, chives, mint, basil…)
• 2 anchovy fillets
• 1 small ripe avocado
• 1 rounded tablespoon of low fat cottage cheese, greek yogurt or sour cream
• A dash of Tabasco
• Salt
