Guacamole

Given that avocado is one of my favourite foods, it's perhaps unsurprising that I adore Guacamole. This is my go-to version, which I'm sharing in celebration of the Mexican Cinco de Mayo festival. It combines fresh flavours, creamy avocado and a spicy kick thanks to the inclusion of chilli.

Three great health benefits: promotes healthy skin, boosts immunity, beneficial for heart health

Makes 1 large bowl

Ingredients:
3 ripe, medium avocados
1/2 red onion
2 green chillis (de-seed or reduce quantity if you prefer a mild dip)
20g coriander, finely chopped
Juice of two limes
Sea salt and black pepper, to taste

Method:
1) Whizz half of the onion and chillis in a food processor until finely chopped.
2) Add two of the avocados, the lime juice, coriander and salt & pepper and whizz again to combine.
3) Pour into a mixing bowl and add the remaining onion, finely chopped.
4) Mash the third avocado with a fork so that it is crushed but chunky. Add to the mixture and stir to combine.
