Re: Appetizers
I posted this in the Avocado thread and was asked to post it here. I got the recipe from a Zuni Indian in New Mexico, so it's pretty authentic!
Authentic New Mexican Guacamole
3 ripe avocadoes
2 tomatoes
1 small red onion
1-2 teaspoons salt
2 jalapeno peppers
bunch of cilantro
garlic clove
juice of 1/2 lemon (I use a lime)
This makes a chunky (not paste-like) dip. Slice avocadoes in half. Scoop out fruit and place in bowl. Mash with fork. Cut up tomatoes, onions, peppers, cilantro. Mince or press garlic. Mix all together. Squeeze in the juice. If making this ahead, throw in one of the whole avocado pits which will keep the dip from browning.
