I wanted a flavored sour cream or crema type sauce to serve over Sonoran Hot Dogs. This is a combination of several recipes and lightened up a bit by using lower fat mayonnaise. Make sure you mince the cilantro very finely - just the leaves, not stems, so that it will not get stuck in the squirt bottle!

    Mix all ingredients together, except milk.

    Check consistency. If the consistency is too thick, stir in milk a little at a time. I put mine in a squeeze bottle, so I used a little more than a tablespoon of milk.
