'GIVE
ME
MORE' Guacamole
By Robyn McLaughlin
Whether dolloped on top of nachos or lovingly stuffed into a burrito, guac’ is amongst the elite when it comes to accompaniments. The combination of fresh, vibrant vegetables mixed with creamy avocado and fragrant coriander is enough to turn any frown upside down.
​
As much as our supermarket’s versions can offer a respectable hit of avocado goodness pre-season, spring and summer is where the guac game gets real. Here, we can replace the green mush of winter with the chunky, lime filled, lovingly prepared homemade ‘mole to dip our lonely nachos in.
​
So, if you feel like you’ve hit guac’ bottom, let’s avocuddle and taco ‘bout how amazing this recipe is that you’ll be shouting Give Me More!

Ingredients – serves 4
​
2 Ripe Avocados chopped into chunks
​
8 Cherry Tomatoes quartered
​
½ Red or Yellow Pepper
​
½ Red Onion
​
½ Lime squeezed
​
Handful Fresh Coriander
​
Salt and pepper
​
​
Method
​
Finely chop the onion and pepper and place into a bowl with the tomatoes and *avocado.
​
Using a fork, gently smash the ingredients to combine them. You should still be able to see large chunks of avocado which will give the guacamole a delicious texture.
​
Squeeze in the juice of half a lime, salt and pepper to season and a generous handful of chopped coriander. Mix well and serve topped with more coriander.
​
Serving suggestions: we love this guac’ with homemade chilli and nachos or spread onto sourdough toast in the morning topping with a poached egg for a delicious breakfast.
​
*Putting the stones in with any left-over guacamole will keep it fresher for longer so keep a hold of them!
Top Tip:
To spice things up, add a hot, hot tablespoon of chilli sauce OR for a Mexican-Asian fusion, shimmy in some soy sauce and a drizzle of sesame oil and seeds to really shake up the game. Holy Guacamole, its good!
