Guacamole

Everybody loves a good guacamole, whether its in a taco, on a corn chip or on top of a jacket potato. Quick, easy and healthy!

Ingredients (makes 1 bowl)

2 ripe avocados peeled and halved (keep the stones)
1 small red onion
1 ripe tomato
1 clove garlic, crushed
1/4 cup lime juice
1 small fresh chili, with stem and seeds removed, finely chopped
2 tbsp Natural yoghurt
to taste Coarse salt and ground pepper

Method

Place the avocado flesh in a bowl and mash with a fork till there are only a few chunks left
Add the chopped onion and tomatoes, crushed garlic, lime juice, and chilies, and mix through with a fork
Stir in the yoghurt
Taste and season with salt and pepper
add tabasco sauce for an extra kick if you like it spicy

Notes

Leave the avocado stone in the dip until it is ready to serve to prevent the avocado turning brown. Sour cream can also be used as an alternative to the natural yoghurt. Serve with corn chips, wedges or sliced carrots

Yum, I didn’t realise that putting the stone in once the dip was made worked to keep the colour good. Great tip.

Wondering if it would be ok to make this lemon juice instead of lime juice, or would it spoil the recipe?
