Introduction

A fabulous smooth and creamy guacamole. Like Nigella, I am strongly against putting tomatoes into Guacamole. However, a friend of ours (the fabulous Bart Corredera) gave us a recipe for this when we were living in the Bahamas and had a glut of Avocados in the Garden (torture, darlings) and advised eating with A-hi - a spicy tomato salsa'y affair, so each can make their Guac as smooth or as spicy as one likes. Fab, subject to the availability of good avocados, of course!

Ingredients

Serves: 8

Metric Cups

4 avocados
5 cloves garlic (peeled and germ removed)
1 sea salt
4 limes (juiced)
1 bunch fresh coriander (or cilantro finely chopped)
2 jalapeno peppers (seeded and finely chopped)

It should be quite creamy and soothing. Serve with A-hi and tortilla chips or potato skins.
