Guacamole

Guacamole is a dip made of ripe avacados, originated in Mexico and is perfect for dipping tortilla chips or nachos or serving with tacos .

Ingredients:

• Ripe Avacados - 2
• Red Onion - 1/2
• Garlic - 1 clove ( optional )
• Jalapeno / Serrano chili - 1
• Chopped cilantro - 2 tbsp
• Lemon Juice - 1 tbsp
• Salt - 1/2 tsp or to taste
• Black Pepper Powder - 1/4 tsp
• Tomato - 1/2

Directions:

• Cut avacados in half , remove the seed and scoop out the avacado and discard the skin. Watch this video I found on youtube on how to cut and scoop out avacado.
• Mash the avacado in a mixing bowl.

• Add minced onion, minced jalapenos, minced garlic and very finely chopped cilantro.
• Add salt, pepper and lemon juice. Mix well.
• Remove the seeds and pulp of the tomato and chop them very finely. Mix these with the guacamole just before serving.

Variation: Add some sour cream in the guacamole dip for creamy texture
