- 1hr to stand
- Easy
- Serves 10
Ingredients
- 3 ripe avocados
- 1 red chilli (stalk removed)
- 5-8 cherry tomatos (quartered)
- 5-8 cherry tomatos (quartered)
- 1 garlic clove
- small bunch coriander (optional)
- 2-3 tbsp olive oil
- 3/4 fresh limes
Method
- STEP 1Use a food processor for this it makes it very easy, although can be done just chopping and mixing.
- STEP 2Chop spring onion into smaller chunks and put in the food processor along with the garlic, chilli, fresh coriander leaves and olive oil.
- STEP 3Remove the stone and skin from the avocados and put in the food processor squeeze in the juice of two limes. Turn on the food processor and chop until well mixed but still chunky.
- STEP 4Now add the tomatoes, the coriander stalks ( best chopped first) and the juice of the third lime. Pulse till mixed and chunky. (This should be a slightly firmer consistency than salsa) Add more olive oil to achieve desired consistency if required.
- STEP 5Leave to stand for 1 hour. Serve with 4th lime cut into wedges. Perfect for freezing. TIP The limes make this dish 1 per avocado as a rule. When buying limes make sure they are almost yellow/green they will be riper and juicier. The heat in this mostly comes from the coriander so beware! If you experiment with your quantities of lime and coriander you will be sure to create a Guacamole you will love.
