Make the avocado crema: add the avocado flesh, sour cream, lime juice, garlic, and salt to a blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth, adding water 1 tbsp at a time until the crema is pourable but still thick enough to coat a spoon. Taste and adjust salt. Transfer to a bowl and press plastic wrap directly onto the surface to prevent browning.
