Guacamole

Guacamole is an authentic Mexican dip served with style for Tortilla chips and any grilled food. It is spicy, chunky and deliciously fresh.

Avocado/Butter fruit are buttery and flavorful pear-shaped fruits. Avocados are versatile fruits from which both savory dishes and desserts can be prepared. It is also one of the most healthiest fruits in the world.

This Guacamole recipe is simple and easy. With very few ingredients, you can prepare an interestingly yummy dip within 10 minutes. It goes perfectly well with Tortilla chips, grilled food and salads. The authentic recipe calls for chopped tomatoes. I personally do not like tomato chunks in this soft guacamole so I have skipped it. Please feel free to modify the recipe as per your taste.
