Guacamole
Description
Homemade sauce recipe. Guacamole is made from mashed avocado, chopped onion, chili, herbs, and seasoned with lime or lemon juice. Traditionally served with corn chips, but also works well as a sauce for meat and fish. This sauce will appeal to vegetarians and raw foodists. Serve it with meat, fish, or use as a salad dressing.

Step 1
1. Wash the tomato, dry it on a paper towel, and cut it into small cubes. Remove the seeds. If desired, you can also peel it. To do this, dip the tomato in boiling water for a couple of minutes—this makes the skin easier to remove.

2. Cut the avocado in half, working around the pit. Twist both halves in opposite directions and "open" the fruit. Scoop out the flesh with a spoon onto a plate and mash with a fork until smooth and creamy.
