Spinach? That sounds like a useful trick...
ground coriander, the seeds and the fresh coriander leaves all have different tastes anyhow. :confused:
agreed gaucamole is totally ace.
I make Guac several times a week... I usually make just 1 avocado at a time, because it doesn't keep well. Though, if you leave the pit in the guac after you make it and cover it very tightly, it can last an extra day!
I take...
1 nice sized avocado
2-5 cherry or grape tomatoes (depending on size, or a 1/4 of a med/lg tomato)
1 small glove of garlic, crushed
a nice small handful of cilantro chopped
2-5 "rings" of jalapeno chopped (more or less depending on spice level!)
nice squeeze of lime, lemon or even tangerine works if that's all you've got.
pinch of salt & pepper
pinch of cumin (optional)
mix together.... I like chunky guac, but feel free to make the avocado smooth and then add ingredients...
Some places add sour cream for texture. Or really to make it cheaper, probably. I would definitely ask, I've found a few restaurants in town that do this.
My quick guac is mashed avocado, lime juice, dashes of garlic powder, salt and pepper. Maybe dried cilantro or hot sauce.
For more propper (planned) guac I'll add chopped tomato, onion, real garlic and fresh cilantro.
many restaurants add mayo or sour cream to their guac.
the last one i can remember is Rubios. they add mayo. :(
yuck.
I've accidentally made a new dip - Tomole! :o
I went to make guacmole and put too many toms in, which has made it a red/brown/green sort of colour and a lot more tomatoey, but very tasty nonetheless ;)
Im lazy. I buy ready made hot salsa, and avacados and mix the two!
I made guacamole last night.

Just tried Old El Paso guacamole, yuck!

1 part avocado, 1 part tomato, and garlic, salt, pepper and cilantro to taste :)
Or avo and premade salsa, though it's not nearly as good!
