Avocado mint Guacamole

Gucamole1

About:

This is one simple and delicious guacamole recipe with minty flavour. Guacamole is one of my favorite things. I love it as a dip, slathered on a piece of bread, along with any number of recipes, or even as a topping on a simple salad. The perfect dip for tortilla chips.

The avocado is a mild flavoured fruit that is great by itself but its mildness is easily influenced by other flavours.

Serves-2-3
Preparation time-10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • Ripe avocados- 3
  • Chopped mint-1/4cup
  • Finely chopped onion/shallot-1 small

  • Juice from 1/2lime/lemon

  • Now this this mashed avocado add onion, tomatoes, jalapenos, garlic.

  1. We also make a lot of Guacamole here in Mexico. We eat avocado daily and I am blessed to have 2 of my own avocado trees in the yard. Your ingredients are the same as we use in one of our guacamole recipes except we chiffonade the mint. I find it interesting that our countries are so far apart yet some of our recipes are so very close.

  11. Hi Chitra – I always resort to fresh coriander on guacamole so I agree with earlier comments – I’ll have to try adding mint too!
