Make the avocado crema: add the avocado flesh, sour cream, lime juice, garlic, salt, and water to a blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth and pourable, scraping down the sides as needed. Taste and adjust salt. Transfer to a bowl and press a piece of plastic wrap directly against the surface to prevent browning.
