What does this mean?

A fabulous smooth and creamy guacamole. Like Nigella, I am strongly against putting tomatoes into Guacamole. However, a friend of ours (the fabulous Bart Corredera) gave us a recipe for this when we were living in the Bahamas and had a glut of Avocados in the Garden (torture, darlings) and advised eating with A-hi - a spicy tomato salsa'y affair, so each can make their Guac as smooth or as spicy as one likes. Fab, subject to the availability of good avocados, of course!

Ingredients

Switch to Cup Measures
  • 4 avocados
  • 5 cloves garlic (peeled and germ removed)
  • 1 sea salt
  • 4 limes (juiced)
  • 1 bunch fresh coriander (or cilantro finely chopped)
  • 2 jalapeno peppers (seeded and finely chopped)

Method

  1. Mash the avocados in a non-metallic bowl.
  2. Add 1/2 the lime juice. Crush garlic and salt in a mortar with pestle.
  3. Add 1/2 garlic, chilli and finely chopped coriander to the avocados and mix.
  4. Taste to correct seasoning and add more garlic/juice/ chilli to taste.
  5. It should be quite creamy and soothing. Serve with A-hi and tortilla chips or potato skins.
