Some of the best typical Mexican snacks, such as tacos, tortilla chips, enchiladas, and quesadillas, are incomplete without a special ingredient: guacamole. This delicious sauce, whose main ingredient is avocado, has several preparation methods.
To prepare the true guacamole there are several essential ingredients: tomato, onion, serrano pepper, coriander, lemon and avocado, but the final result will depend on the cook’s seasoning. It will do those who do not like spicy and do not add chili to it.
Alfonso López, a chef who writes for the site Recetas de chupete, shared his recipe to make guacamole easily, quickly and lastingly.
