Mexican Guacamole with Secret Ingredient

Marta & Dani

DANI’S SECRET GUACAMOLE RECIPE from Mexico

Tools- a rock and stone bowl to mash and mix the guacamole.  (You can use a Japanese suribachi, or a wooden bowl and rock)

I  serrano chile, dry or fresh

salt to taste

2 avocado

a few squeezes of lime juice ( about 1 1/2 teaspoons)

1-2 Tablespoons of milk

Put the chile in the bowl and mash it with the rock. Add salt to your taste. (We don’t use much salt here) grind the salt into the chile.  Sprinkle with a little lime and grind the lime into the mixture.  Add two peeled avocados.  Mash and mix into the chile.  Taste and adjust the salt if needed.  Add a few more squeezes of lime.  Stir with a spoon.  Add 1 Tablespoon of  milk, using more if you want a smoother texture.

Dani’s family serves cut onions and hot peppers on the side. Each person can spice or onion up the guacamole as they please.
