Step 2Coarsely chop 1 avocado. Process with the coriander, mint, chives and 2 1/2 tbs lime juice in a food processor until almost smooth. Add the coconut milk, water and 1 1/2 tbs of the remaining oil. Season and process until mixture is smooth and well combined.

Step 3Cut remaining avocados into wedges. Drizzle with a little of the remaining lime juice to prevent discolouration. Arrange with papaya and lettuce on a serving plate.
