Steps:
- In a food processor or with mortar and pestle, process or pound the garlic and salt to a paste. Add onion, chilies and tomatillos; pulse in processor, or pound to make a slightly chunky paste.
- Scoop out the avocado flesh. For a smooth, machine-finished purée, add it and the cilantro to the processor, and process very fine. To do it by hand, finely chop the avocado, and mash it into the onion-tomatillo mixture; stir in cilantro leaves. (For a medium texture, pour the machine-processed onion-tomatillo mixture into a bowl, and mix in the chopped avocado and cilantro.)
- Serve immediately as a dip or a sauce with chips or vegetables.

Tips:
- For a smooth and creamy dip, use ripe avocados. Look for avocados that are dark green or black in color and slightly soft to the touch.
- To easily peel and pit an avocado, cut it in half lengthwise and twist the halves apart. Remove the pit with a spoon and then scoop out the avocado flesh with a spoon.
- If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
- To make the dip ahead of time, prepare it up to 2 days in advance and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. When ready to serve, let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.
- Serve the dip with a variety of dippers, such as tortilla chips, crackers, or vegetable crudités.
