Five-layer Mexican dip


How to Make - Five-Layer Mexican Dip
Kitchen:Mexican,
Time: 23 min.
Complexity: easily
Servings: 12


One of the most popular Mexican dipping dishes is layered dip. It requires preparing several sauces and dips separately and layering them on a shared platter so that each layer is visible, meaning each top layer is slightly smaller in diameter than the bottom layer, or use a clear dish. The dip's base is black bean puree, topped with fried corn and onions, then a layer of guacamole, sliced ​​tomatoes, and grated cheese. Serve this appetizer with chips or tortillas for dipping, and scoop out each layer a little at a time to experience their amazing flavor combination.
