Guacamole is a really tasty dip that is perfect with nachos or a nice addition to a wrap. There is very little work in creating a guacamole and the end result is a zingy, fresh and full-flavour dip. Below we take you through the steps to making a quick and easy guacamole straight from your own kitchen.
Ingredients
- 1 Avocado
- Squeeze of lime juice (lemon juice will also work)
- 1/2 Red chilli, de-seeded (or 1/2 tsp of chilli paste)
- Handful fresh coriander, chopped
- Sprinkle rock salt
Prep time: 2 – 3 minutes
1. Preparing your avocado
Cut the avocado in half and remove the stone. Score the flesh on the inside and use a spoon to scope it into a bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork leaving a few small chunks of avocado for texture.
2. Add the remaining ingredients
Chop the coriander and red chilli and add it to the avocado mix. To this you then add a fresh squeeze of lemon or lime juice and a sprinkle of rock salt. Stir and taste and adjust seasoning if needed – extra chilli if you need more heat and extra lemon / lime juice if you want more zest. Serve and enjoy – we recommend nachos with melted cheese, sour cream and a fresh tomato salsa.
