Description

Fast Prep, Big Flavours

This is the way guacamole is made in Mexico and in the best Mexican restaurants around the world! The secret step that makes this so special is making a paste with onion, chilli, coriander/cilantro and salt before adding the avocado. The flavour of the paste mixed throughout the guacamole really takes this to another level! PS There is no sour cream in proper guac. 🙂

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)
  • ¼ tsp salt, plus more to taste
  • ¼ cup roughly chopped coriander/cilantro leaves
  • 1 large ripe Hass avocado (Note 1)
  • Lime juice, to taste (I use ¼ - ½ lime)
  • Optional: 1-2 ripe tomatoes, peeled, deseeded and chopped

Directions

  • Place the onion, jalapeño, salt and half the coriander in a mortar and pestle. Grind into a paste (see video below or photos in post). Alternatively, place on a cutting board and use a fork or knife to mash (see video).
  • Add avocado and remaining coriander, and mash coarsely.
  • 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!
