Sweet & Spicy Guacamole
Ingredients
  • 3 ripe avocados
  • 2 tbsp fresh lime juice between half to a full lime
  • 3 tbsp minced red onion
  • 1 jalapeno, stem and seeds removed, minced
  • 1/2 tsp dried chili flakes
  • 1/4 cup cilantro, finely chopped leaves and tender stems
  • 1/4 cup diced tomato
  • 1/4 cup ripe mango, finely diced
  • 1/2 tsp flaked sea salt
  • A dash of freshly grated black pepper
Instructions

  1. Cut the avocados in half. Remove seed and scoop out the flesh with a spoon, into a bowl.

  2. With a fork, roughly mash the avocados, I prefer to keep it a little chunky.

  3. Add the lime juice and mix well. The acidity of the lime juice will delay the avocados from turning brown, balances the rich flavours and adds brightness.

  4. Add the chopped onion, cilantro, mango, jalapeno and chili peppers. Chili peppers vary individually in their hotness. So as I mentioned, start with half and add to the guacamole until you’ve reached your desired degree of hotness. 

  5. Add salt & pepper to taste. 

  6. If you are making this ahead and storing in the fridge, wait to add the tomatoes right before serving. I like to add half the diced tomatoes in the guac and sprinkle the rest on top.

  7. Serve with tortilla chips or veggies and dig in!
