Oh man, how I love me some good guac. I think the secret behind any guacamole is the garlic – not too much, but not too little!
(Takes 15 minutes, Serves 2-6)
Method
- Halve the avocados, then use a spoon to scoop out the innards (see how to prepare an avocado for tips). Add them all into a medium sized bowl, and mash until the desired consistency is reached.
- Cut the lime in half, and squeeze the juice from one-half over the mashed avocado.
- Add the onion, coriander, chilli, and salt to the bowl. Crush the garlic over the top, then use a fork to combine all the ingredients in the same motion you’d use to whip cream.
- Taste! Add more chili, salt, or lime juice to balance the flavour.
- Serve with corn chips, tortillas, nachos, tacos, or any of your favourite Mexican dishes!
Ingredients
- 2 medium to large avocados
- 1 lime
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1/2 a red onion, finely diced
- A handful of coriander leaves, coarsely chopped
- 1 red chili (vary type and quantity by preference), finely diced
- Freshly ground rock salt (vary by preference)

Yum Like the idea of Corriander would give it a nice twist.

Yummmmmmm!
I still have my original copy of “Gerrod’s Guacamole” in my favourites recipe book
I like how you say 15mins. it sounds like a long time, but does take about that long to mash it doesn’t it…
