Guacamole

Published by Angelee

You just can’t beat a good guacamole, this recipe takes minutes tastes amazing and will have your friends green with envy! INGREDIENTS Enough for 1 bowl of guacamole Cooking time -15 minutes 2 large ripe avacado’s 1 tomato ½ small red onion, handful of coriander 2 limes, juiced 2 tblsp olive oil ½ tsp salt ground pepper METHOD Destone the avacados, I find it easier if you score the flesh in a criss cross style then scoop out, you end up with chunks. Slighty mash but not overly as you want to get chunks of avocado in your mouth! Finely chop the onion, tomato and coriander and mix into the avocado. Add the lime juice, salt, olive oil and pepper.
