Why recepie famous for?
Whenever I make this traditional guacamole for friends, someone always asks me for the recipe. No one can ever put their finger on it. They just know it is so much better!
Ingredients
2 tbsp finely chopped white onion (or red, brown or yellow)1 tbsp finely chopped jalapeno or serrano chilli (or other chilli of choice) (adjust to taste)
1/2 tsp salt , plus more to taste
1/4 cup roughly chopped coriander/cilantro leaves
2 medium avocados (or 1 very large one) (Note 1)
Lime juice , to taste (I use 1/4 - 1/2 lime)
Optional: 1-2 ripe tomatoes , peeled, deseeded and chopped
Instructions
Place the onion, jalapeño, salt and half the coriander on a cutting board and use a fork to mash until juicy. OR do this in a mortar and pestle - grind into a paste.Scrape into a bowl, add avocado and remaining coriander, and mash to desired consistency.
Do a taste test then adjust to your taste: salt, lime juice for sour, more chilli for spiciness.
If using tomatoes, stir through.
Serve with corn chips!
