I know – you are used to seeing sweet stuff on here. But I am also able to make other, more savory things ;) Burger, sandwiches and other hearty snacks. Especially the recipes that can be done quickly are my favorites. Like this Guacamole along with some taco chips and a beer ;)

I know – avocados are a “no-go” for some people, cause growing them in large amounts can cause problems. Avocados like hot weather. That means you need a lot of water to keep them happy. In countries with a hot and dry climate, the cultivation of avocados can cause a sinking groundwater level. Avocados are popular right now, so some farmers are willing to ignore this problem. I don’t want to tell you what’s right or wrong, but if you haven’t known this – you know now ;) Make your own decisions regarding the usage of avocados.

Back to the guacamole. It’s really good. Unfortunately, I probably have to say now ;) It’s not a “classic” guacamole, but almost. The original one has no tomato or chili, but these two additional ingredients are quite common now, so it’s an “almost” classic guacamole ;)

You can eat it with some tortilla chips or you can use it in other dishes as a side or maybe to fill something – grilled sandwiches or wraps for example. Maaaaybe I got some recipes for that in the very near future too ;)

You should prepare your guacamole right before you want to serve it. Unfortunately, avocados have a tendency to brown when sitting on the table for some time. It’s a chemical process you can slow down but hardly prevent completely. The guacamole does turn bad when getting darker, but… not as pretty. That’s all ;)

Instructions

1. Dice the onion and garlic cloves finely, chop the cilantro (or parsley) and add all together with some salt to a mortar and crush until you get a nice paste (some larger pieces are ok). Set aside.
2. Wash the tomato, half and remove the watery insides – cut into dices. Remove the stone of the avocado and add the insides of the avocado to a bowl and mash with a fork until smooth. Add the onion/garlic paste, diced tomato and chili pepper (optional) to the bowl and mix. Add the lime juice and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately with some tortilla chips.
