Directions
-
seeded and minced Juice of 1 lime 1 Jalapeno or serrano -pepper, seeded & minced Salt to taste This next recipe is for the closest thing you will find to a green salad in classic Mexican cooking.
-
Although many fresh vegetables are used in both Mexican and Tex-Mex dishes, they usually are incorporated in the dish, rather than served separately.
-
Guacamole (Wahk-uh-MOLE-ay) is an avocado-based relish/sauce/salad that may be used as a
-
garnish , accompaniment or first course (often in this role, accompanied by crisp-fried tortilla wedges for dipping).
-
For a really elegant (and typically Mexican) presentation,
-
serve the Guacamole in individual lettuce cups, garnished with a radish rose.
-
Peel and seed the avocados.
-
Place one avocado in a bowl and mash until smooth.
-
Coarsely chop the second avocado and stir it in, along with the remaining ingredients.
-
Serve immediately if possible.
-
For my taste, this makes the dish seem uncomfortably like baby food, but if you prefer it smooth, go for it.
-
If this sauce is to be held for any length of time at all, return the avocado pits to the mixture (this helps prevent discoloration), and
-
cover with plastic
-
wrap , placed directly on the mixture, pressing down to eliminate all air.
-
Avocados discolor to a nasty brown if left exposed to the air.
