Background
If you like guacamole you'll love this avocado salsa recipe! It's healthy delicious, has a kick to it and so easy to make. Prefect side dish or starter in a Mexican or Tex-Mex meal, or as wrap/taco filler. I like serving it as an appetizer with tortilla chips.
Ingredients
- 1 handful of cherry tomatoes (or 2 large, ripe) tomatoes
- ½ red onion
- 1 jalapeño pepper
- 1 medium avocado
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1 small clove garlic, minced
- 1 handful coriander leaves (chopped)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Finely chop the onion then put in a strainer or sieve and pour some boiled or cold water over it to (this will remove the harsh bite). Drain well.
- In a small mixing bowl whisk together olive oil, lime juice, garlic, salt and pepper.
- Dice the tomatoes (remove the seeds if you like). Deseed the chilli, then chip finely. Peel the avocado and cut the flesh into tiny cubes.
- Put the diced vegetables into a serving bowl, add the onion and chopped coriander leaves too. Pour the dressing over and toss gently. Taste and adjust the seasoning/heat.
