Guacamole

I am in the US spending time with my children and realise that most people here love avacadoes . Yesterday, my daughter in law Natalie made Guacamole to serve as a starter to guests at a Bar -be-cue party. It tasted great with Tortilla chips and veggie sticks. Here's here recipe;


Ingredients:
3 avacadoes
1 medium sized tomato finely chopped
1 medium sized onion finely chopped
2 green chillies
3- 4 cloves of garlic
one small bowl of coriander leaves finely chopped
1 tsp cummin powder
Juice of one lemon
salt to taste

Procedure:
Peel the avacadoes and slit into halves. Apply juice of half a lemon and keep aside .

In a mortar  and pestle, pound onion, tomato, green chillies , coriander and garlic to a pulp. Add avacadoes, cummin powder, salt and the remaining lemon juice and  pound to make a homogeneous pulp. Empty the contents into an attractive glass serving bowl and keep in a cool place for an hour. When guests arrive, serve with tortilla chips, plan khakhra or veggie sticks.
