Guacamole is Aztec for “Avocado Sauce”, the original recipe calling for crushed avocado, tomatoes and salt.
Ingredients
1–3 fresh green chillies – finely chopped
2 spring onions, thinly sliced
Handful of fresh coriander, roughly chopped
3 ripe avocados (quick get them before they over ripe!)
2 ripe medium tomato, cut into 3mm dice
Spoon of organic honey
Sea Salt
Juice of 2 limes
How to make it…
1. Put a teaspoon of the chilli, onion and coriander into a pestle and mortar, along with a pinch of the sea salt, and grind to a paste. Add in the teaspoon of honey. Mix well.
2. Peel the avocados and remove the stone. Cut into cubes, then mash into a chunky paste, leaving some pieces intact.
3. Stir the chilli paste into the avocado, and then gently fold in the chopped tomatoes and the rest of the onions, chilli and coriander. Add lime juice and salt to taste. Serve immediately, or cover the surface with cling film and refrigerate.
