Gerardo's Guacamole
[vc_acf field_group="836" field_from_836="field_5ec7ef96179db"]This quick recipe is same recipe that is used at La Tortilleria. I recommend making guacamole in a mortar and pestle (or ‘molcajete’ in Mexican Spanish) is a common technique, and also is an impressive way to serve it. This recipe is served with char-grilled corn tortillas, but you can also serve it with tortilla chips (totopos).

Ingredients
- 8 nixtamalised corn tortillas preferably from La Tortilleria
- 3 avocados
- 1 tomato
- ½ red onion
- ¼ bunch of coriander
- 2 fresh green chili serrano or jalapeño, sliced
- 1 lime juiced
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Finely dice the onion and place it in the bowl with the lime juice. This will cure the onion and remove some of its bitterness.
- Finely dice the tomato, and chilies. Chop the coriander finely and combine all the ingredients in the bowl with the onion and lime.
- Add the avocado and salt to taste. Mix all the ingredients together.
- Place the tortillas under a hot grill and leave to harden and char slightly, turning halfway. Substitute with totopos.
- Serve the guacamole in a bowl with the charred tortillas on the side.
